The bands that I like besides the Stones, make similar music, such as Black Crowes, Aerosmith, Velvet Revolver, Jet and some old ones. I guess if the Stones never had existed there would have been no bands that I would be interested in. Maybe I'd become a Beatles fan *uargh*

But I still like Bob Dylan ...

If the Stones never existed who would you be obsessed with?

Angeline Jolie could be a good candidate to be obsessed with...

[There'll be no wedding today...]

Jessica Alba

Probably U2 or AC/DC or Aerosmith.

Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Winter, Robert Johnson (I'm obsessed with), Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker, Willie Dixon, Howlin' Wolf and all the other great man of blues history ...

Tom Jones

englebert humperdink

Cliff Richard

NO ONE!

The Who

Pete just wouldn't do the windmill (which he took from Keith)

There were and are (rock) bands and there is the Rolling Stones. Two different thing. There is not a close second to the Stones because they are so different. No one will play the electric like Keith.

kishörcsög, that's right. I can't imagine anything else. And there is no IF.

I am equally obsessed with David Bowie.

Well, maybe a tad less obsessed with Bowie, but please don't tell anyone - I have a reputation to uphold.

Bowie cannot be replaced! Sacrilege!

Bowie is my other obsession. The "problem" with Bowie, if you will, is that much of his music is more "challenging" than Stones music, so I am not always in the mood to hear it... But I am always in the mood to hear the Stones.

Both the Boys and Bowie are aging fast, it will be sad when they are done and gone.

I am and always have been equally obsessed with Bruce Springsteen.

Apart from the Stones (who I have flown from lonely Perth, Australia to either Sydney or London specifically to see), Springsteen is the only other artist I have flown anywhere to see. To see Bruce, I have flown to Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and London.

So there IS obsession there. It's a different obsession though, hard to put into words but as close as I can get:

THROUGH the Stones I live Rock and Roll, and the lifestyle.
THROUGH Bruce I live.

In each's own individual way though, they have impacted on:

1. how I live,
2. what I believe and
3. WHAT other music I listen to.

I would shoot myself and be transported to wherver they could be found !

Who would there be???? Everyone after the Stones would be much diferent if they existed at all. So it would have to be Tom Jones! I'm serious!!
It's Only R&R....
CZR

Captain and TEnnille or Neil Sedaka. It's a close call.
kidding.

If the Stones never existed, it would be a strange world . . . . the Beatles would have ruled popular music, and there would have been no one to introduce the wider public to R&B. Herman's Hermits remains the greatest challenger to the Beatles crown, with the Beach Boys and the Hollies close behind. "Heavier" groups like Jeff Beck Group, Bluesbreakers, etc., never catch on. As a result, the "metal" movement never has any steam, and Led Zepplin, Cream, etc., never get formed.

"Black music" means the Fifth Dimension, the Supremes and the Jackson 5. In the 70's, R&B becomes viewed as "historical african american music", and the radio is dominated by Eric Carmen, Captain & Tenille and Tony Orlando & Dawn. In the 80's and 90's "veteran" groups go on tours where they play all of their hits over the years, like Bread and their "Forty Sticks" tour. In the 90's there is no grunge to challenge disco-pop, and "roots" bands like Aerosmith, AC/DC and Bon Jovi, play small blues conventions in small towns across the globe.

In this world, there wouldn't be much to be obsessed about except, perhaps, Lisa Fisher's rear end.
