"Love Songs" is my favorite, along with the first part of the white album.

It is, and that gets my vote. I decided to restrain myself, and just tell Mrs. Rorgg to get me the set for Christmas.

I have them all, but the ones after revolver are all my favorites.

But I lean a little towards the white album.

I have over 600 Beatles albums. No, really! But they only made twelve, you say, plus a handful of posthumous official releases. The other 580 or so are bootlegs.

Of the canon, I have to pick Abbey Road.

I still love Let It Be. With the exception of "Across The Universe" and "The Long And Winding Road," which Phil Spector ruined with strings and girlie choirs, the post-production he did on the rest is absolutely stellar. I know, because I have the same material before he went to town on it, and the editing and production he did is beyond brilliant. He made the proverbial silk purse out of a sow's ear.

Glyn Johns' two rejected compilations of the album when it was still called "Get Back" are pretty good, too, but they would have been an embarrassment if they had been released at the time.

Revolver ftw! closely followed by the White Album & Abbey RD! I really want to get Rubber Soul next! I like Sgt Pepper but it's not my favorite. Also a lot of my favorite beatles songs aren't on any studio album; I Am The Walrus, Rain, Hey Bulldog, Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields etc.

*you can tell i'm a Beatles fan with a name like MrWalrus lol*

I have bought the stereo box set, and my favourite so far is either Revolver or Abbey Road.

Revolver, in completely unadulterated, un-combfiltered MONO. -- The album no longer has the fidelity that made the stereo version sound like it was recorded in a tin can.

Actually, the Red and the Blue albums (Greatest Hits). They have all of the songs that you can sing along to. :D

I have been listening to the White Album here lately. It is probably my favorite studio album right now.
