Revolver by a landslide. One of the best albums of all time imo, for sure my favourite Beatles record. So astonishingly innovative, still sounds phenomenal today.

My choice is Revolver for the simple fact that it was released a year prior to Sgt. Pepper and also ground breaking progressive at the time. hug P.S. Eleanor Rigby, da dadadidumda dada daaa.... more

Sgt. Pepper has never been a favorite of mine - too many dull tracks. But Revolver - now there's a great album.

Sgt. Pepper's is better and a bigger influence on prog.

Both are genuine masterpieces. Sgt Pepper's is musically stronger. But revolver is "catchier", you know.

Neither: Abbey Road . It has my three favorite Beatles tracks (Because, Sun King, Golden Slumbers/Carry That Weight), two great George Harrison tracks (Something, Here Comes the Sun), some great Lennon tracks (Come Together, I Want You). But from the list, I'll go with Sgt Pepper.

Revolver. Because I think early prog was already influenced by that album and previous Beatles' releases. The songwriting is stronger, there is no McCartney granny music, and I prefer the Indian influences on Love You To and Tomorrow Never Knows over Within You Without You.

I very rarely listen to Beatles, but by coincidence I have listened to Revolver just 3 days ago...I wouldn't have had the same inspiration from Sgt Pepper, I'm afraid.
