New Poll: Best Rolling Stones album

I don't have the time or patience to write a Tuesday Top Ten this week.

Last week, the Rolling Stones reissued their 1972 masterpiece Exile on Main St. You can get a remastered version, a deluxe edition, which contains the remastered album and 10 outtakes and previously unreleased tracks, a vinyl remastered version, and a "super deluxe edition," which contains the CD, the bonus tracks, the vinyl version, a DVD documentary, and a 50-page book. Target is also selling a bonus CD, called the "Rarities Edition," containing only the 10 outtakes and previously unreleased tracks (which is on its way to me as we speak).

Exile on Main St. is a good enough album that its reissue was #2 on the Billboard album charts last week. No doubt, it is a fantastic album, but is it the Stones' best? That, I'm not so sure about. Here are what I would consider to be the four candidates for best Stones album (in chronological order):

Beggars Banquet (1968). Highlights include "Sympathy for the Devil," "Street Fighting Man," and "Salt of the Earth"
Let It Bleed (1969). Highlights include "Gimme Shelter," the title track, "Midnight Rambler," and "You Can't Always Get What You Want."
Sticky Fingers (1971). Highlights include "Brown Sugar," "Wild Horses," "Can't You Hear Me Knocking," and "Bitch"
Exile on Main St. (1972). Highlights include "Tumbling Dice," "Happy," "Let It Loose," and "Shine a Light"

It's a tough call. So, what do you think? You have one week to vote on which one of these is the best Stones album of all-time. Or do you think another album is the best? If so, please leave a comment and let me know which other album you think deserves to be on top of the list.
