How any of you old fugkers ever listened to The Beatles and thought 'Man, this kicks ass' is beyond me.
Travis Did you ever listen to the stuff that came before them? Go rent Jersey Boys and you'll understand. As to Beatles or Stones? Which one was Clapton with?

The Stones. Just to answer the question.

Mick Jagger is the best proof I've ever seen that contracts with the Devil actually exist.

Frank Zappa beat 'em both!
But...of the 2, the Stones were a much better rock band.

Beatles suck heavy ass.
They were the first "Boy Band" and ushered in the likes of NSYNC.
Pop in the extreme.
You should punch yourself in the dick for even mentioning them in the same sentence as the Rolling Stones.

Stones, Stones, Stones. Why? Rock and Roll should have that edge. Richards and Jagger have it. The Beatles were a nice pop boys band. The Stones were/are Rock and Roll. Our parents didn't like the Beatles hair and all the screaming of their daughters annoyed them. The Stones scared the chit out of them.

Hands down the Stones! The Beagles are fine if you're into 2 minute songs that all sound the same.
With the Stones the song styles cover several genres of music from rock to pop to country. Agree completely.
Conduct is the best proof of character.

Which was better? I've been back and forth on this my whole life. No clear winner but I might lean in the Beatles direction a little more. And no I don't care to hear how much more you may prefer AC/DC or Metallica. Not on the same stage, in the same building, the same universe--the Beatles lyrically, melodies, everything, by a whole note,.........ten thousand of them.

Travis There is a generation younger than you, listening to Rap "music" and liking it, you aren't more puzzled by that? Fixed it for you.

I liked a lot of the Beatles songs but I think my pick would be the Stones.

I like the variety of the Beatles' music, they showed far more growth in that area, but the Stones put on the best live concert I've ever seen.
Both of them beat the crap out of Metallica... Have each played by an orchestra or a string quartet and get back to us on the musicality and the "growth" or "quality" of each.
America needs to understand that our troops are not 'disposable'. Each represents a family; Fathers, Mothers, Sons, Daughters, Cousins, Uncles, Aunts... Our Citizens are our most valuable treasure; we waste far too many.
