Though theyre all good-to-very good, they're each very far from all time masterpieces, so I would say "all of them".

But my top choice was Revolver, which fails to convey much emotional/conceptual depth -- a high degree of which is the common denominator of all truly extraordinary art.

This should be updated, considering The velvet underground is in the top 10 and London Calling isn't anymore

Nevermind by a country mile. Great first 5 songs, and then nothing worth listening to. 20 great minutes out of 50 is not enough to be a masterpiece. The time of its release and how its commercial success affected music of the era is important, but that doesn't change that 60% of the album is discardable. Also, I like In Utero better, but still not enough for top 10 status, or anything close to that.

Sgt. Pepper. I like it but the Strawberry Fields/Penny Lane single is the real masterpiece.

On the other hand, the only album here that I can see as top 10-ish is Revolver.

I honestly can't choose between (The White Album), Revolver, London Calling & IV.

All phenomenal albums don't get me wrong but Highway 61 Revisited deserves to be in there.

You know those songs aren't in the album right?

Really? OMG I thought they were on Pet Sounds!

I'm saying that although Sgt. Pepper is good, the Strawberry Fields Forever/Penny Lane single is a much better and more complete piece of work which was also recorded during the same sessions and shared similar aesthetics.
