sign o the times V songs in the key of life

here is the mother of all album battles...two heavyweights meeting head on for the title greatest double album of all time. in the purple corner we have sign o the times the high point in prince's creative streak, wonderfully eclectic set of songs were brilliance appears on many tracks.
...in the blue corner we have songs in the key of life the last album of stevie wonder's run of superb albums in the 70's. an album of wonderful songs that is maintained over 21 tracks.
...
...SO WHICH IS THE GREATEST...COME OUT FIGHTING WITH YOUR GROOVES UP.

I'm a big fan of both so this is a very hard question. Personally, I'd have to vote for SITKOL. When listening to SOTT I never skip a track, whereas there are four on SITKOL that I skip (Blackman, Contusion, Ngiculela.., All day sucker). However, the remaining tracks on stevies album are so strong, and writen/recorded with so much passion that they overshadow the odd average track.

That's a tough one.
Depends on my mood. Definitely. Stevie if I'm down, P if I'm not.

It's a draw for me. They are both symbols of what happens when great songwriting and musicianship collide.
I'm not a fan of "old Prince". I'm not a fan of "new Prince". I'm just a fan of Prince. Simple as that

I love both albums equally and for different reasons. It's a draw IMHO.
