Favorite Beatles Album(s)

For this thread, I was wondering what was everyone's favorite Beatles album or if I should have people rank them. Ranking them, for me, would be humanly impossible, well not humanly impossible, just tough; every album is fantastic. You can either name your favorite album or rank them if you like.

My favorite would be a toss up between Rubber Soul and A Hard Days Night.

    This is a very difficult question
    Beatles albums are as important as lungs to me.

    But in the spirit of picking...I'd have to go with "The White Album"....But "Revolver" and "Pepper" are never far behind...and "Let it Be" is awesome....and how could you forget about"Rubber Soul".....SHIT!!! HERE I GO AGAIN!!!

    Yeah...I guess "The White Album"...only because it's the longest :)

    So hard to choose, but gonna say The White Album, as it was my first Beatles album. My dad introduced me to The Beatles through giving this album to me when I was little, so it's special for me- besides those amazing songs! Abbey Road is definitely also up there for me!

    My dad's cousin, who is an awesome guitar player, was telling me their early stuff is harder than the later stuff. I should also add that I really love the early stuff. It's just too tough to choose just one album.

    It seems like picking a favorite Beatles album is like picking your favorite child of yours...you just can't.

    I have noticed that; a lot of people are late Beatles people.
