I thought I'd post album lists as well.

Bob Dylan vs. U2
I prefer 5 Dylan albums to Achtung Baby - he's simply the greatest artist of all time.
The Who vs. Bruce Springsteen (#2)
My preference of the albums goes like this: Darkness, The Wild, Born to Run, Who's Next, Tommy, Born in the USA, Nebraska, The River
R.E.M. vs. Johnny Cash
Prince vs. The Cure
David Bowie vs. Arcade Fire
close but no cigar for AF.
The Rolling Stones vs. Jimi Hendrix
I've finally heard all 4 of the big Stones albums, and without exception, they're all stunning. Meanwhile I've never been a fan of Hendrix's big two.
Led Zeppelin vs. The Clash
The Clash made my favourite album of all time, and I've finally got into their debut. As good as Led Zep IV is, it doesn't stand a chance.
The Beatles vs. James Brown
