Beatles vs. Stones

Both great. Rockers v. Song-smiths. The Rolling Stones would catch up, surpass The Beatles, with "Let It Bleed". And yes, they were competitors back then.

 

Happy Listening!

A lot of years..many albums..but these days I rarely listen to either.

The Beatles obviously.

The Stones, for me, without Brian Jones became rather monochromatic after their extraordinary run between 1965 -1967.

I can't think of a single great Stones album, and trust me I've given the highly regarded Exile on Main Street plenty of plays.

 

However the Stones did have plenty of great individual songs though.

With Brian Jones on board -

Play with Fire 

Mother's Little Helper

She Said Yeah

I'm Free 

Under MyThumb

Out of Time

19th Nervous Breakdown

Satisfaction

Yesterday's Papers

Ruby Tuesday 

Paint it Black 

What to Do

Let's Spend the Night Together

We Love You

Dandelion

She's a Rainbow 

Jumping Jack Flash

 

After Brian Jones -

Happy 

Angie

Miss You

Start Me Up

 

...and that's about it.
