I suppose that the vote is going to be different depending on whether you think about them as musicians, writers, their personality, their solo careers...

As a writer my favourite one is Lennon. In my opinion the best songs ("In my Life", "Tomorrow Never Knows", "Strawberry Fields Forever"...) came out from him.

As a musician both Macca and Harrison were rather skilfull. I love the bass in "Drive My Car" and the guitar solo in "Something" is one of my favourites (beautiful in its sheer simplicity and just what the song needs).

And as far as the personality goes my vote is for Harrison. I tend to like the "quiet ones" in bands where there is a lot of ego fighting around (this is why I also like Rick Wright).

And yes, most of McCartney's solo albums suck.
