<i>Rubber Soul</i> gets my vote. My second choice is <i>Revolver</i>. In my opinion, these two albums belong together as companion pieces, sort of as a double album that just happened to be released one album at a time. I've essentially always thought of them as two sides of the same coin: the Beatles exploring a musical sophistication they never had before and never looking back.
