Zep have better albums, but the Stones have better singles (although Satanic Majesties' Request is good, on par with I or II IMO), so it's a tie there.
1. Beatles
2. Kinks
3. Zep
4. Stones
5. The Who

Agreed about Zep having better albums / Stones better singles. Also agree about Satanic Majesties', which is actually my favorite Stones album (I'm odd, I know. It transports me to another world, which I need every now and then.).

Satanic Majesties' Request is the only Stones studio album I actually listen to regularly. I wish they'd explored that direction further.

It's a good album - probably my fifth-favorite of theirs (after the four directly after it). I don't really understand liking it more than Let it Bleed or Exile though.

I'm a psych-head. Tried to get into Beggars Banquet, Let It Bleed, and Exile, for the longest time, but they don't do anything for me.

I quite like them as a singles band, however.

I'd say 'Bad Company' BY Bad Company FROM 'Bad Company' ( 1974 ). It should also be on the 'Bad Company' label ( ) ! But I digress. A timeless classic indeed ( ) !

^^^^ I love Bad Company too...one of my top favorite bands, but in this poll I'm surprised that Gimme Shelter didn't get more votes??

I didn't get into the Jimmy Miller era Stones' albums until just a few years ago and now I love them and "get it". Each of those discs have a very unique vibe to them when listened to as a whole.
