The Rolling Stones - their best album?

Sticky Fingers was amazing

While realistically not their best album Beggars Banquet has always struck a chord with me.

This. Not a huge Stones fan honestly, but i will give credit where its due, great album.

I'm surprised Sticky Fingers is the top. My favorites go like this:

1. Exile on Main St.
2. Let it Bleed in a very close second, could beat Exile if I was in a different mood is how close they are.
3. Beggars Banquet
4. Some Girls
5. Between the Buttons(US Release has Ruby Tuesday, British doesnt for some reason)
6. Their Satanic Majesties

For me it was "Let it Bleed" it was a pivotal time for the Stones and this album reflects their new direction.

I love me some Exile! Who's with me?

It would have to be Exile On Main Street which just has so many powerful, atmospheric songs.

Yup, would go with "Exile".
Personally, I thought "Sticky Fingers" was a decent album, but over rated.
