I think that it's beyond dispute Sgt.Pepper is the most significant and infuential album ever made but that doesn't mean it's the greatest and I think we have to ask questions about an album with WI64 on it as thegreatest album ever made.
Is there a difference between an album being the greatest and being the most significant and influential?
What's everyone else think?

I just worked out you are referring to When I'm 64, which I think is a nice song with a nice somber contrast in the middle section. The arrangement is nice and it has it's place on the album.
There is no one greatest or most influential album and anyone who makes huge claims for some album as being that is likely to get some ridicule.
