Revolver is a top-5 all-timer for me.
Sticky Fingers, top-100.

I don't want to see the Beatles, especially Revolver take it all, and won't vote for either of the albums in the D-II final.

Yeah, I'm not sure how the seedings were really decided one we picked a top two from each grouping, but they didn't really match how most Obnerians would have seeded it.
If we do this again, we should consider a classic finale and a modern era finale, with 1977 or 1980 as the divider line.

The age old question: the Beatles or the Stones?

The correct answer is both, but Sticky Fingers doesn't just beat Revolver, it flogs it to death with its own dick and then penetrates the corpse with a Mars Bar.

And I know it's all subjective and it's all personal opinion and qualitatively speaking Mickey Dolenz was every inch the rocker as Jerry Lee and yadda yadda yadda etcetera I'M TAKING NAMES ON THIS ONE.

Ten rounds, ten point must (removing the four Beatles tunes from Revolver's 14 cuts that annoy me).

Brown Sugar 10 Taxman 9

Sway 10 I’m Only Sleeping 9

Wild Horses 10 Love you to 9

Can’t You Hear Me Knocking 8 Here, There, Everywhere 10

You Gotta Move 9 She Said She Said 10

Bitch 10 And Your Bird Can Sing 9

I Got the Blues 9 For No One 10

Sister Morphine 10 Dr Robert 10

Dead Flowers 9 Got to Get you Into My Life 10

Moonlight Mile 10 Tomorrow Never Knows 9

RS - 95 Beatles - 95

RS win because of the four annoying songs removed from the competition.

I should have been using the 10-pt must system all along.

No album with "Good Day Sunshine" and "Yellow Submarine" can beat an album that has "Sway" and "Moonlight Mile". That's in the Bible.

Sticky Fingers. If someone asked me to describe my idea of rock n' roll by playing a single song, "Bitch" would be pretty high at the top of my list of choices.

Sticky Fingers might just be a perfect album.

Always a Stones guy over the Beatles. My dad would fly to Boise (or Atlanta) to pummel me if i thought i preferred the Beatles in any way shape or form.
