Not worth comparing .....
One band is body & soul music the other is head music ....

Like comparing apples to McDonald's apple pie.
One is raw and fresh, the other a bit over produced.

I have never liked "Money".
Pink Floyd's or the Stones's "Money"?

For some reason I also like the McDonald's apple pie

Despite what I stated in my earlier post in this thread, I do, however, quite enjoy the Barrett-era: Piper at the Gates of Dawn, Arnold Layne, See Emily Play, and the assorted B-sides: Candy and a Current Bun, etc.
The post-Barrett era is, to me, bloated, pretentious and beloved only by white, middle-class ex-University students. This isn’t meant as a slant against this particular demographic at all: it’s just my observation, going by those I’ve known to be fans of the group.

Albums like Obscured By Clouds, The More-soundtrack and Meddle are excellent, imo. In many ways, I like them better than the «classics» (Dark Side, Wish You Were Here, Animals, The Wall).

I agree, they are like comparing apples w/ oranges, but still ... boring? Is the Stones Wild Horses boring? Some might think so but I sure don't, and I don't see much a difference between that track and Wish You Were Here -- both are great! And in this case I do see a comparison.

They're both bands of white, middle-aged British men. That where the similarities end.

One’s reached middle-age by around 40. The Stones and Floyd are definitely elderly.

Very confusing ...
I thought I had started my second youth two years ago, just like Jagger did 7 years ago

Some even believe that middle-age begins as early as your mid-thirties. As someone whose just reached their late-30's, I very strongly debate this! Forty seems about right, with old-age beginning at around the age of sixty-five.

If I may, I would like to come with a vital objection: In this case it is not a question about apples or oranges. Instead it is all about "Apples and Oranges". To be more spesific
