If we are comparing their output from the 60s, the Beatles win, hands down. The Stones were the better band by the time the Beatles officially imploded....and we will never know what would have happened had the Beatles stayed together till 1974 or 75. If you look at Lennon and McCartney's 70s output, the music is nowhere in the vicinity of what The Stones were doing.
The ex Beatles first few solo albums are amazing(except Ringo's). Easily on par and/or above the stones at their supposed peak circa 1970 - 1972.
They all sucked by 1974.

Not sure I agre that they all sucked by 74. Paul had just released Band on the Run in December of 73. So was riding hi on that album through most of 74. He released Mrs. Vanderbelt, Jet and Band on the Run singles in 74. And he released the fantastic single Juniors Fram (scorching tune!) So he was on the ascent.
Lennon meanwhile released imo one of his best albums in 1974, Walls and Bridges! A fantastic gritty funk New York rock album full of pain, dispare, and light romanticism. All of Lennon's best psyches wrapped into one album.
Harrison's Dark Horse was a bit of a let down, but still had some interesting moments. But yes, not as good as his last two albums. And the tour that accompanied that album was not very good. He had blown out his voice.
Ringo release Goodnight Vienna, not a great album. But not terrible. I do think if they had reformed in 74, both Paul and John would have brought some very interesting material to the group.

I'm very intressted in what ablum from 1974 that possibly could be better than John Lennons 'Walls and Bridges'? 'It's only rock'n'roll´is no good suggestion for example...

Neil Youngs 'On the Beach' is a great one, but Bachman Turner Overdrive...you can't be serious...

On Rate Your Music, Walls and Bridges is ranked no. 293 in 1974. It's only
rock'n'roll is ranked no. 399. I have no idea why Beatles fans would pick a Stones web site to discuss their idols.

Listened through the Beatles albums today, on vinyl. Even the record that is considered a turkey; Let It Be, is far superior to anything RS wanted to do at the time. Nevermind Keith thinking he invented the open G thingy. The Beatles were geniuses, Rolling Stones were just a bunch of wuzzies back then. And they would have continued to be that, if not getting confidence through drugs in the 70s
It's getting dark in northern Norway these days and depression is already setting in.
Nailed what? You haven't even been here
Sun is up 20 hours a day here. Way brighter days than what you suckers down south has the cope with. So much for your nailings
Keep on raising toasts to yourself, Per Arne and "walking the dog"s great heads. You got yourself nailed for sure - nailed in your private parts
Just for the record: The sun is up 16 hours 14 minutes in northern Norway (Tromsø) today, decreasing by 9 minutes every day.
