I consider Sgt. Pepper's to be the most influential album ever (which doesn't mean it's the best, as for me the best album ever is Abbey Road). We could argue forever which is better, but I think calling Thriller more influential than Sgt. Pepper's is simply wrong. Sgt. Pepper'¡s changed EVERYTHING, hell, it even changed the way covers are designed, introduced attaching lyrics to albums, popularized concept albums, introduced new recording techniques, showed how an album could be made with such dissimilar genres of songs.
No, no album has ever been more influential than Sgt Peppers
