Exile on Main Street is the greatest album of all time. Funhouse is one of the greatest albums of all time.

i predict this will not be a real fucking fight cuz mosta the people who like these albums are gigantic wusses and use their stones/stooges fandom to compensate (i know i do)

funhouse!

Exile on Main Street, although I like Funhouse a lot. It comes down to "Rocks Off" vs "Down in the Street": is Mick Jagger a more compelling pussyhound for using languor as a come-on or Iggy for waving his dick around?

Exile for me, but there really is no wrong answer to this one.

first few beers = Exile
then on = Fun House

It's worth noting, though, that if you asked me what the best album ever was I would say Fun House.. but really it doesn't matter, and we're all winners

funhouse, because side one is perfect.

― ed horrox (girl_afraid), Monday, 1 May 2006 18:44 (twenty years ago)

sides 1-4 of exile are perfect.

An easy one for once. Funhouse.

I'd take Beggar's banquet over both of 'em though

exile now but funhouse on another day.

― gear (gear), Monday, 1 May 2006 21:45 (twenty years ago)

exile on main street today

and, also, tomorrow

― charltonlido (gareth), Monday, 1 May 2006 22:08 (twenty years ago)

Exile

Funhouse on Main Street would be the greatest album ever. Also, it would be in a really cool town. Or Disneyland.

― M. Biondi (M. Biondi), Monday, 1 May 2006 22:47 (twenty years ago)

the best songs on Fun House can maybe only top "All Down the Line" or "Soul Survivor." The other 16 song on Exile are miles ahead. the Stooges are very average.

― nicky lo-fi (nicky lo-fi), Monday, 1 May 2006 22:51 (twenty years ago)

Not even remotely close. Funhouse by COUNTLESS, UNFATHOMABLE LIGHT YEARS!

A men.

Hey, Alex! Whoo-hoo! It's been a long time!

― Alfred, Lord Sotosyn (Alfred Soto), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 15:39 (twenty years ago)

plsmith otm upthread, they tie. More to the point, whichever one happens to be on is the winner for me.

― TRG (TRG), Tuesday, 2 May 2006 15:40 (twenty years ago)

It's tough. "Funhouse" makes you want to stick your head thru a plate glass window and "Exile On Main Street" doesn't. So "Funhouse".

Exile in the daytime
Funhouse at night

"first few beers = Exile
then on = Fun House
-- ghost dong (sonny.bloo...), May 1st, 2006."

OTfuckinM!

NEITHER.
BOTH.
