I love the Beatles and Sgt. Pepper's is a great album, but I have to vote for Dark Side. It's a stronger album on the whole.

My collection wouldn't be complete without both of these.  I voted for the underdog.
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

Shocked It used to be post '89, does this mean that Walter has regressed? Anyway, either way it's irrelevant to his disdain for these albums.

I dont think he remembers....

Pink Floyd great and at their best
The Beatles average, even at their best

dark side gets my vote, sgt pepper is great but have aged badly compered to floyd, if they hade put peny lande and strawberry fileds on the album it might have been closer the album lacks some real highlights i think, i dont undersant why they culdent have the song on the album yust caus they put em out as singles... the old music buisnies was a bit wierd, now days they always have the popular song on the albums dont they? whatever...

Sgt. Pepper, I've no doubt.

I like Pink Floyd, but not Dark Side onward. There's only Great gig. The other stuff is not so good, IMHO.

Unfortunately, some of DSOTM drags a bit. Can't say that for SPLHCB, although LITSWD isn't exactly a favorite among those tunes. I'll give it to the Fabs.

Dark side, that keyboard/organ sound combined with guitar/slide guitar on Breathe comes from another world.

Dark Side.  

While I think it's overrated and that they have better albums, I've absolutely NEVER seen whats so special about Sgt Pepper.  Its a collection of two minute pop songs...theres some catchy parts, but the only part worth anything to me is A Day in the Life.

Oh, and Dark Side is produced by Alan Parsons, which means its about as gentle on the ears as music can be.
