Revolver vs. Sgt. Pepper's?

[Lostio]

I can't believe Revolver is winning by so much.

My thoughts exactly.

[tkitna]

Revolver is their greatest album from the first song to the last that they have ever done. Maybe that anybody has ever done for that matter.

i think sgt. peppers is better..dont know why just seems to be the album i can listen to all the way through..never really loved revolver though, although it is known widley to many as teh greatest album

Um, very tough, But Sgt Peppers Win

Apples and Chainsaws. Each album was so different, it's hard to compare.

i think generally its sgt. peppers that over rules revolver, but favourite at the mo is revolver

Its no secret I like my Beatles best when they rock out. and Revolver has significantly more rockn' numbers than Pepper.

Apples and Chainsaws. Each album was so different, it's hard to compare.

That's a good point to make. I mean, you wouldn't compare say, The Who Sing My Generation and Tommy, would you?

You'd have trouble picking between A Flock of Seagulls and Culture Club.

Revolver is the Beatles true psychedelic masterpiece more so than the highly overrated Sgt. Pepper by a long shot.  Solid tracks that are superior to most of the ones on SPLHCB especially the Lennon gem Tomorrow Never Knows.

I've never been Peppers biggest fan but I listened to the mono vinyl last night and wow - it sounds so much better. Much richer and denser than crappy remastered cd's.
I remember a quote from Elton John, who's a movie buff but never watches them on dvd or video - only on a large screen because that was the medium the artist intended. I feel the same now and am going to try and never listen to Beatles music on anything but vinyl. Not just the sound but the two sides make all that much more sense. WYWY sounds so much better to me as an opener, rather than just sitting in the middle of a bunch of songs.

That's exactly the reason for why I didn't buy any Beatles stuff on CD. It's all remastered and sound cr......not too good to my ears.

Tough call. I think that 'Revolver' is the better of the two, probably their best, though 'Sgt. Pepper' flows better. So what do you do? I couldn't compare any two albums that they released. They were all brilliant in their own ways for the time that they were recorded/released. Some people think 'Let It Be/Get Back' was a 'cardboard epitaph' as Rolling Stone called it, and I love that album and playing my guitar along with it.

[metaphysical]

I'd say..Sgt. Pepper, mostly because,
it's one of few albums where I can listen without skipping the tracks,
because the songs are just..awesome
but. Revolver is also very great,
my username, metaphysical came from revolver,
because revolver is a metaphysical album. . .

Sgt. Pepper is so overrated as a classic rock album, it's sick & with only a few great tracks.  Revolver is the Beatles true psychedelic masterpiece that defines them during the mid 60's in all their glory.
