A while back, there used to be a simple question which gave real insight into people's character - "Which is your favourite Beatle ?".
John was, of course, the right answer for anyone with rebellion, spirit, sensitivity or independence. Paul was the option for the safe, middle class folk who didn't like music as art or rebellion, but simply as something nice to hum in the car. George, well, if you voted George you were wrong, but you were trying to prove how unique and different you were.
And if you voted Ringo, you were either joking, had absolutely no ear for music, or just
loved "Thomas the Tank Engine".
I reckon this is the same sort of question. I'll leave others to provide the analysis why (
), but the right (John Lennon equivalent) answer is unequivocally "Dark Side of the Moon". "The Wall" and "Wish You Were Here" are good albums, but, then again, McCartney and Harrison were good musicians without ever managing to be John Lennon....
