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!

Moodies
I stand with Roger Waters, I stand with Joan Baez, I stand with Victor Jara, I stand with Woody Guthrie. Music is revolution

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

Those of you who have picked one over the other are fools, fools I say, LOL
Released date are often when it it impacted you but recorded dates are when it really happened...

The Moody Blues Days of Future Passed

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.
