Re: The Beatles Or The Rolling Stones

The Beatles were on the forefront of a new music revolution and a lot of "firsts" are to their credit which I respect.

 

I would rather, however, listen to the Stones.

I was reading an article, Howard Stern interviewed Sir Paul McCartney and got him to admit he thought The Beatles were better than The Stones. Just taking the pulse of the people, Beatles or Stones? Hands down, it's The Beatles for me (greatest band of all time)!


One time I would've said beatles but I might have to go with the stones because they have lasted as a band much much longer than the Beatles 

 

But that's really hard vote to do so I'm abstaining

That's easy!  The Beatles have always been my favorite but I like the Stones also.

I think Lennon and McCartney together were excellent song writers. Such amazing work. I love the Beatles. The Stones were harder rock, different from the softer Beatles. And I am a Queen fan!

Re: The Beatles Or The Rolling Stones

I like both. But I grew up with the Beatles. So the Beatles.

 

I thought they were a children's band. I considered the Magical Mystery Tour album book to be one of my books as a child. I loved looking through it.
