Taking nothing away from Sgt Pepper. Dark Side is a masterpiece of epic proportions. This is the album I throw on whenever I'm testing new stereo equipment. In terms of songwriting, atmosphere, production and for being a cohesive conceptual work, I put it up there with anything in the history of Rock. 

Sgt Pepper's usually takes a back seat to Abbey Road or Revolver for me when it comes to the Fab 4. All of it is essential listening anyway. The Beatles walked so everyone else could run!

Pink Floyd > The Beatles by any measure.

Sgt. Pepper's is a great album but Dark Side is epic.

[riderpride]

Both are works of art and it comes down to mood and activity. I will say I can listen to Sgt Pepper's more casually, so Dark Side of the Moon gets a slight nod there.

Cheers!

Never really liked either. I find them quite morbid and boring actually😎🌴especially the Floyd fellow. Bring on the sad emoji.

Any guesses how I answered? Do you hear Sheep playing in the background? 😜

Mother of God, West... my sincere condolences. 

I'm scared to ask what music you actually do like.

I would prefer California Girls Katy Perry over those two at least she has personality.

My fears were well justified.

It’s not Dark Side of the Moon, but I can see your point.

[JohnS]

Difficult to choose. Musically-speaking, Dark Side of the Moon is better whilst culturally-speaking, it's hard to compare the impact that Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band had upon pop music thereafter.

Ha, so my partner's teenage daughter keeps telling me.

Dark Side of the Moon gets a light nod, both are classics. Not sure why, but Animals gets most of my Pink Floyd listening time.

I'm addicted to Wish You Were Here. I gave Sgt Pepper's the nod over DSOTM as it was one of the first albums I listened to as a kid in the 1970's, thanks to my older brothers' collection.

Never worry about "why".  Just enjoy   Like cigars, Pink Floyd gives the opportunity to make a selection based on mood. I'm all over the place with both. Today I'll give you one answer on my favorite but tomorrow is probably going to be different. 

[Goldeneye]

Was easy pick for me, not really a Pink Floyd fan.

[Rupe]

This one was a no-brainer for me. I do enjoy Sgt. Pepper's (and the Beatles in general) but Pink Floyd has been my favorite band for the past 40+ years. Dark Side of the Moon is a masterpiece IMO. When I was 16 years old, my best friend had a quadrophonic stereo set-up and I was blown away by the sound of "money" rotating around the room. Add in a little THC enhancement and I became an instant Floyd fan. 

[Lucas Buck]

Dark Side of the Moon, no contest and it’s not even their best album! Floyd is an all timer for me. 

[Deeg]

I picked Dark Side of the Moon but this was my first “Don’t make me choose”. In my view Sgt. Pepper’s is mid-Beatles, but mid-Beatles is still ridiculously good. I would also take Wish You Were Here over Dark Side of the Moon.

[loose_axle]

Love Dark Side of the Moon and a lot of Pink Floyd in general but never really been able to get into the Beatles (having said that enjoyed playing their stuff in a covers band just wasn’t big on listening to it) so it’s a no contest for me on this one.
