....I still wish those stupid newbs would just hold off on posting until they had listened to all three.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, I did not vote until I had completely listened to S.F. Sorrow. And what an awesome album it is! I like Sgt. Pepper the most, but IMO Sorrow beats out Piper.

Having heard all 3, i would say S. F Sorrow and Piper are on par - both are better than Sgt Pepper's. There's nothing hipster whatsoever about voting for something that isnt the Beatles, especially when voting for an album as good as these two.

Knocking on Sgt Pepper is very hipster, so is thinking Floyd went to crap after Barrett.

I need to give Sorrow more listens but I don't think it'll reach Pepper's level for me. Piper doesn't come close to Peppers, at all. Peppers is IMO the 2nd best Beatles album after Abbey Road.

Piper is like.... the 8th best Floyd album.

I genuinely dont like Sgt Peppers that much, i dont like half the songs and im not a huge fan of its grandeur. And im a massive Beatles fan, i would also agree with you in saying Abbey Road is my favourite. But personally i prefer Rubber Soul, Revolver, the White Album, Let It Be and Beatles For Sale to Sgt Pepper.

I love the concept implicit within Sorrow, its a musical journey of sorts that takes you through all sorts of emotions. And Piper being Floyd's 8th best album, well, thats just personal opinion, it's not my favourite Floyd album, and its not my favourite psychedelic album either, but it's in the top 3 of Floyd's discography for me.
