Maybe I didn't put it in the best way. I just hate the whole "disco sucks", Old Grey Whistle Test, Later With Jools Holland, this is real music bull****.

Re: Beatles v Stones. At the point the Beatles released Sgt Peppers the Stones were yet to release a great album (the Beatles had released at least three stone cold classics). From this point on I think the Stones bossed it and their period from 68 - 73 is remarkable but I think that even during this period, they weren't doing much new and were really just recycling black American styles that were twenty years old by this time.

We are in absolute agreement.

I really like Magical Mystery Tour but I wasn't counting it as an original album. I think that Abbey Road has it's moments but doesn't hold together as well as their best work. The White Album would have been a brilliant single album but I think as a double it is too inconsistent. And I think that Let It Be is their worst album.

Well, they certainly agreed re: Let It Be! Yes, a good argument re: The White Album, but I think they were entitled to experiment such as they did. Strictly speaking, with the exception of maybe a dozen double-albums, most will dilute the power of a release rather than enhance it IMO...

I agree. I'm not saying that they should not have experimented, the Beatles would not have been the great band they were without taking risks. I think that there is some really great material on the White Album (as there is on all of their albums), I just don't think that they consistently hit the same heights as they did on the preceding albums.
