Clearly the voting is rigged, as the only choice one can select is Let It Bleed. However, the choice between the two is tough. Let It Bleed has a buncha great songs-"You Can't Always Get What you Want", "Gimmie Shelter", "Let It Bleed", the cover of "Love In Vain"...

 

However, Let It Be also has some really great songs-"Across the Universe", "Let It Be", "Two of Us", "Get Back", "I've Got a Feeling"...

 

Hmmm....it's tough, but I'll go with Let It Be because I like the "live"-ness of it. And I really, really hate "Monkey Man".

"Monkey Man" is awesome, fuck you. And while Let It Be isn't as dire as some would have you believe, it's still a bunch of tossed-off piffle. Also, Let It Bleed is my sixth favorite Stones album, lest you think I have some gigantic boner for it.

Sticky

Exile

Beggar's

Their Majesty's

and...uh...Some Girls? Not in any order, but I'd guess those are 1-5.

 

I do like the Replacements' Let It Be more than either.

'let it be' is just sort of an above-average album. a lot of the songwriting just sucks.

 

'let it bleed' was the weakest of the stones' godlike 4-album run--doesn't have the unified awesome sound of beggars or the riffs of 'sticky fingers', but still damn fine work.

Switch 2 and 3 and you got it.

 

In spite of what I said earlier, number six switches between Let It Bleed and Between the Buttons.
