Which of these classic rock albums is the best?

The Beatles Abbey Road

Led Zeppelin II

Led Zeppelin 4

Rolling Stones Sticky Fingers

Rolling Stones Let it Bleed

The Who Who's Next

Well, while the two Zepellin albums are good, they don't match the others. Sticky Fingers is also good but doesn't match the others.

The remaining three:

Let It Bleed
Abbey Road
Who's Next

are all important albums filled with hits and iconic songs.

I judged by counting the number of "memorable songs" on the album divided by the total number of songs. By this standard, Abbey Road is the winner with Who's Next and Let It Bleed slightly behind.

you missed the best one, Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon

[OtterMan68]

ugh! Yeah, should have added that

[Fireguy17]

oh ya, you betcha, that would have been the winner!

Try to interpret it as "classic rock albums between 1969 and 1971"; that would remove DSoM.

Led Zep 4 even though I never need to hear it again.

Abbey Road was a amazing album. It is not a real hard rock album but it was an experimental album that showed the genius of Lennon and McCarney as well as the amazing talent of Sir George Martin

[LiamJHayden]

Led Zeppelin IV, although I personally prefer their Physical Graffiti and Houses of the Holy.

[legalboxers]

The Beatles
