One more for Sgt. Pepper's.

After that, I would have to go with Rubber Soul.

By the way, has anyone here heard the reggae retake on Sgt. Pepper's by the Easy Star Dub All-Stars? ****in' awesome.
They also did reggae versions of Dark Side of the Moon and OK Computer.

Abbey Road
The White Album
Rubber Soul
Sgt. Pepper
Revolver

How is it a tough choice? You basically just picked their 5 most famous and successful albums.

Rubber Soul is easily my favorite. Norwegian Wood, Think For Yourself, In my Life, I'm Looking Through you, Wait, If I needed Someone, Run for your life, all incredible songs. Besides being my favorite for having my favorite compilation of Beatles songs, it also is when the Beatles really stated to evolve out of the mold they had only began to crack with Help!. It was also when Harrison(My favorite Beatle) began to really shine and show that he, maybe not on a quantity basis, but on a quality bases, compete with John and Paul.

I really dig most of their works from Hard Days Night onward. Second and third favorite would be Revolver and Help!

Revolver, hands down. Firstly, it was musically innovative as hell, with stuff like "Tomorrow Never Knows" and the backwards guitar in "I'm Only Sleeping". It also showed George Harrison really coming into his own as a songwriter, with "Taxman", "Love You To" and "I Want To Tell You", and Paul McCartney contributed some of his best lyrics with "Eleanor Rigby" (my favourite Beatles song, by the way) and "For No One". They were all at their creative peak, musically and lyrically, and its influence on psychedelic rock was huge. If that's not the mark of the Beatles' best album, I don't know what is.

That's 10 words. We needed to do it in 5! And how's it a mess? There's some absolute brilliance on there.
