Moodies album. Neither are perfect, Days is dated (in the poetry) but it's concept is clear (unlike Pepper). Both are '67 releases, both very contemporary. I suppose the best one can get from both is A Day In The Life (first class piece) and Tuesday Nights in White Satin (sic), also first class.
Good poll choice!

Both are a bit overrated Though I don't actually own Days, and thus have only heard it a couple of times.

When he rides, my fears subside.
For darkness turns once more to light.
Through the skies, his white horse flies.
To find a land beyond the night.

The Magnificent Moodies -- just a beautiful album. Sgt. Peppers is one of my least favorite Beatles albums.

Sgt. Pepper by the slightest of margins; two of my all time fave albums.

A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

Which is better? I like both but really don't want to go there. I like Sgt. Pepper a little better.
Probably by a margin of 4.31 to 4.14...

Both are great albums and I don't believe that one is 'better' than the other.
I think that Pepper was probably more influential, but I play the Moody Blues more these days.

Definitely Days. Pepper has a few great tracks but is not the strongest of Beatle albums. Days on the other hand is very satisfying as a complete album work.
