Stones or Beatles?

Beatles

 

Beatles.... i personally was never a stones fan

 

Pffff. The Beatles were about on a level with n-synch and such. It's mindless bubble-gum pop. Stones all the way.

Revolver was a good record though!

edit: still not smoking? I quit just over a year ago, and it's the best thing I've ever done! Ganja is so much sweeter now, not to mention life.

 

I'll take Their Satanic Majesties Request over The Magical Mystery Tour, but that's as far as it goes for the stones favourism.

 

Janis....Dead....Airplane....The Band....Beatles....

Stones don't even enter into it...

 

beatles early music wasnt mindless. it was unique, thats why it was so popular. you have to think of it in its context. obviously they had to start sounding like the existing styles, and then they could progress into their more experimental stuff after gaining such popularity

beatles are my fav, some stones is fun but not a whole album

 

The Beatles. How can you compare them to the Stones

 

Man, that is a tough one! I started on the stones,.... not at the beginning, but later on, I was a blues fan and they were doing music that just blew me away! I loved their image, what they stood for (rebels) and what they did musically. I was, and always have been, a big 'keef' fan! I played guitar because of him, I learned alot just listening to his rhythm technique. and I got really good at it.

Then the beatles come along. what fabulous musicians! Their lyrics and recording advancements, backwards recording, violins, orchestras, hidden messages,.....yeah,....thats a tough call, but.....stones all the way! Keff all the way!!!!!

 

they are both good in their own ways

 

shite....the stones for the slightly more good guitare work...the beatles for the st.pepper album...cause you just can not trip like you trip on st.pepper....and well...the stones is great making out,foreplay and getting it on music man....

i can't choose....

 

Im gonna have to go with The Beatles

 

definitely the beatles

 

Beatles of course

 

Led Zep
Pink Floyd
The Eagles
ZZ Top
U2
The Band
The Beach Boys
Abba

All are in the same league in my view, and for quality songwriting, I pick the Eagles.

 

i agree!

 

Outta the Stones and the Beatles I pick the Stones.

The Stones have that raw emotion in their music, and are more bluesy rock and roll which is always gonna appeal to me.

The difference between The Rolling Stones and The Beatles is like the difference between CSNY and Crazy Horse....

 

Difficult..but i go for the Rolling Stones..

i do like their older work..
last time,streetfighting man,gimme shelter..
she's a rainbow..paint it black etc...

Emiel

 

I'll go with The Beatles

 

The Beatles.

Sorry, but one word for the Stones: Sellouts.

 

I'd struggle to choose between the two, so probably couldn't say who I prefer on a personal level or who I thought were better, but on a totally unrelated note I actually prefer The Kinks to both of 'em
