This is the first year I'm able to compile a list of 10 albums. Obviously this early on we've got a lot of the usual suspects - and deservedly so. Picking a favorite out of these top 4 is like splitting hairs, really, but I often consider Help! my favorite Beatles album. The addition of The Moody Blues' debut album was a bit of a stretch, not a bad album but not really exceptional either. I was just trying to fill the 10th slot. I'm also not a big Dylan fan but he's grown on me over the years and this is a solid album.

Special note: Most people have not heard of The Sorrows. I suggest you remedy that if you're one of those people. Now.

1. The Beatles - Help!
2. The Byrds - Turn! Turn! Turn!
3. The Byrds - Mr. Tambourine Man
4. The Beatles - Rubber Soul
5. The Sorrows - Take a Heart
6. The Rolling Stones - Out of Our Heads
7. The Zombies - The Zombies
8. Bob Dylan - Highway 61 Revisited
9. The Kinks - The Kink Kontroversy
10. The Moody Blues - The Magnificent Moodies


Great list. I would personally make room for

A Love Supreme
Bert Jansch
Maiden Voyage
