Just the mention of the Stones and Beatles in the same breath makes us young once again. Some real magic in those names.

Really? A Stones v Beatles thread on here is more likely to give me haemorrhoids. Even though I dont have them.

Stones - Mitch, go to a Beatle board!

Well, what can I say, it's the age old question, The Beatles vs The Rolling Stones, and it probably isn't going away anytime soon, at least not in our lifetime.

I kinda think the majority of Stones fans are Beatle fans (I know I am) and I am also guessing most Beatle fans are actually big fans of the Stones. They were mates, for the most part. Would be cool if they decided to team up in their latter years and do something together.

Can't believe you guys are going through this once again. You people must be very bored.

STONES........

Sorry guys, the Beatles OWN this song.

Oh my god are you serious!! The guitar at the begininng of the beatles version is what I play to people who are in bands and there jaw hits the floor to how bad it is.

My 5 year old son could play it better totally laughable

The Rolling Stones

..and now What?

2 1 2 0

The Stones' version is a disaster from start to finish. What is the highlight of it? The off tune chord at the end of the song?

It has feel and swing, it is rough around the edges and sung with total commitment by jagger. Sounds like an early garage band.. it also sounds to be recorded by people who are dangerous and would lead you to the wrong end of town which makes it an intoxicating brew!!

the Beatles version..... well it is so watered down to appeal to everyone, including your granny which is where I have the problem. It is the difference between tutti frutti by little Richard and pat boones version of tutti frutti.

Of course were bored, been too damn long between tours, however, I had a suspicion we were gonna have a five year wait after ABB so I can't say I was surprised. Maybe we should shut it down until next spring?

The Beatles were a great pop group but they couldn't rock 'n' roll.

There's only one way to settle this:

Excellent!

The Stones - Monkey Man

The Beatles - Rocky Racoon


The Stones - Can't You hear Me Knockin'

The Beatles - Can't Buy me Love


mmmmmm? Stones

Did the Beatles do anything blues influenced? And please dont say Yer Blues. That song is terrible.

I don't think they did, R&B/ Soul influenced ('Money' for example) is the closest they came.

Some of John's solo stuff from his (brilliant) 1970 'Plastic Ono Band' album was very blues-influenced though (Well Well Well, I Found Out).

'Yer Blues' is just a spoof / parody of a blues song.

mitch, this is your best thread ever! Getting a great response!

Gazza, has anyone ever told you that you are a real "downer", mate? Very knowledgable fellow, but a downer, nonetheless!

one of the best point pro Beatles is:
they knew when to split and they turned down all offers to do a come back tour (or even a single show). That really deserves recognition!

This is blues based song.

Yet another example to vote for The Stones to answer the thread question.
