One of my favorite Stones records is Goat's Head Soup because "A Hundred Years Ago" and "Star Fucker". Who I like better depends on my ever-fluctuating mood. Liquor and card games? Stones. Pot and too much candy? Beatles all day.
'Star Star,' you mean?
Anyway, Revolver is better than the other three, but Rubber Soul drags it down to less than Banquet + Fingers.

I know the actual name of the song, but you know they would have named it "Star Fucker" had it not been for the suits. Banquet's got "Factory Girl", and that's a song and a half

But I really like Rubber Soul...
One of the 5 best Beatles albums isn't actually by the Beatles...

Not only that, but I've listened to and loved that song for my whole life, and only found out the back story a few years ago.
"Hey, uh, Dad, they're saying Star Fuck, right?"
"Yeah, we just figured you wouldn't notice 'til you were old enough that it didn't matter."

Not enough drinking and fucking on any Beatles record, period. Exile sounds like getting loaded beyond belief at the best house party ever and looking at Polaroids of the event later.

"Turd on the Run" is the best song title...

I don't really listen to the stones, although my history professor played star star before class once and I totally dug it. Anywho, I had to look up the track listings... I choose Pepper strictly because A Day In The Life.

Exile, only because Sgt Peppers ain't my favorite Beatles album, whilst Exile IS my favorite Stones album. Funnily enough, I'm rereading the Richards Autiobio right now

but that solo in "Sway"...(talkin' Sticky Fingers here, obv.)I think a tougher matchup for me would be Sticky Fingers vs. Revolver.
EDIT: post above somehow got triple-posted. Sorry.

Had to vote Beatles, because they can write songs, play instruments, and sing. These are pretty much my top three items in pop music.
