The Rolling Stones - their best album?

I was surprised not to find a topic already on this. What do you think is their best album?
If you choose "other" you have terrible taste.
Sticky Fingers for me.

I like Sticky Fingers the most. I think Exile on Main St. is a bit more consistent but the first half of Sticky Fingers is just so good.

Exile is one of my favourites but Stick Fingers is their most complete album, I think.

Some Girls, I like the way they infused punk rock and disco.

Sticky Fingers for me, with Some girls at a close second.

I like Exile On Main Street the best, but I'm also a huge fan of Beggars Banquet and Sticky Fingers.

Exile or Let It Bleed. Let It Bleed is their best selection of songs imo but Exile is such as fascinating album and has such an interesting history. So Exile.

Unless you choose Satanic Majesties, Out Of Our Heads or Goats Head Soup which are better than at least half of the ones on that list.

Let It Bleed is the only Stones I still listen to much anymore.

Aftermath for me. The combination of the UK and US editions are to me the highlight of the Brian Jones era with plenty of interesting instrumental backgrounds blending in with the surroundings with ease as well as being the first full album of Jagger/Richards songs.
