Mine depends on my mood.

Hard to say. Each is the best along its own particular dimension.
I lean towards Sgt. Pepper's, as a complete audio experience from the opening fanfare right through to the weird looped stuff at the end.
I'm partial to the White Album too, for the experimental edge in it.

I'll go for the obvious answer: Revolver

Oh boy...the one that's playing? Rubber Soul, Revolver? Twist my arm and I'll say Rubber Soul.

The Beatles had so many great albums that it would be hard to narrow it down to one. Also, as previously mentioned it can sometimes depend on the mood.
For mine, It is definately "Abbey Road".
I love this album the best because it truly shows the different styles of Lennon & McCartney at the end of their partnership and clearly when there was no more collaboration between them. This album signified the END OF AN ERA!
Both are/were pure musical genius' in their own right and this album demonstrates that perfectly. Also included 'Something" and "Here Comes The Sun", which I think was some of Harrison's finest work.
I guess that's also why I love "A Day In The Life", as that song is pure Lennon with an added McCartney flavour in the middle.
Abbey Road followed by Rubber Soul

Revolver.
Thats when they were at their peak musically as a band (not as a group of musicians). For one album to have Taxman (probably my favourite Beatles song- love that bass line), Doctor Robert, Tommorrow Never Knows, Got to get you into my life, Elanor Rigby, I'm only sleeping, She said she said, its pretty amazing. Makes it hard to go past in my eyes.

for so many reasons it has to be revolver.it was imo the first great album the band created and their finest.some other albums may contain some of my fave songs but as a whole this album is my pick.

Interesting.......I think Revolver has a few really good tracks, but I have to say I don't rate it as highly as most people do. I much prefer Rubber Soul. Or HELP! for consistency.
