I'd think Abbey Road would be mine, but Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club is also pretty awesome!

Why "Magical Mystery Tour" isn't included?

MMT wasn't an official British album. It was an double EP over here and
was padded out to an album in the States with other singles (not bad
padding though!).
Revolver is their best album, with The Beatles a very close second.

Yellow submarine was the worst
I went for Abbet Road. From Rubber Soul to Abbey Road ( with the exception of Yellow submarine which was just a money making ploy ) each release was ground breaking.
Apparently John Lennon became quite depressed in the early 70s because the Beatles lost their trailblazer status to the more progressive bands. After the Beatle's demise a shocked Credence Clearwater Revival were passed the mantle. After that the crown seemed to be worn by Led Zeppelin and maybe the last crown wearers were Fleetwood Mac.

It's Sgt. Pepper for me, with the White Album a close follow-up. Abbey Road was my first Beatles-album and will always be one of my favourites, especially because of Side 2.

Sgt.Pepper followed by the White album. I do have a soft spot for A Hard Day's Night though as it was the 1st album i bought of theirs many years ago!

I voted for Help!. Great transitional record where the Beatles are still singing about love (as opposed to drugs & sex), and they sound young and at their most sincere (and not a touch of cynicism). Personal favorites are I've Just Seen a Face, You've Got to Hide Your Love Away,You Like Me Too Much, and of course Ticket to Ride and Yesterday are classics.
