Two of the best(?) art pop albums of the 60s. Well, certainly the most influential. Rolling Stone put Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club band as the number 1 best album ever, while Pet Sounds was second. What do fine people on BEA have to say about the debate? Beach Boyz or Beatles Boyz?

Too close to call. I go back and forth on these, rating them virtually equal. Maybe Ill revisit them and get back to you with a vote/personal conclusion.

The real answer is Skylarking though Wink ...except the 60's part, though it might as well be.

Sgt. Peppers for me and its not really even that close.

Pet sounds is a great album and I could only imagine how it would have sounded in 66. With that said, I think The Beatles catalog aged a whole lot better. If Pet Sounds was a 10/10 in 1966 its an 8/10 now in my opinion (still a great score, but I've rated a lot of albums an 8 ).

Both outstanding. I gotta go with Pet Sounds. It works better as a whole and compositionally I think it's a little more sophisticated whilst remaining totally accessible. Its number one on my overall so would actually win against any other album (I have Pepper at a lowly 32 currently Laughing )

I just prefer the songs and flow of Sgt Pepper a bit more, but Pet Sounds is a triumph. I remember the moment the CD was finished the first time I ever listened to Pet Sounds I said something along the lines of "Well, that was perfect." However, (especially with the new mix) I find myself returning to Sgt Pepper much more.

Though, I would say that Wouldn't It Be Nice is one of the most pristine examples of pop song perfection ever.
