I wouldnt think so. The expression long predated the band's name

not the expression ( A ROLLING STONE GATHERS NO MOSS),,the song.

i haven't read anything official but i seem to remember that it was not necessarily written about the Stones but..because the Stones were such big fans of Dylan, they sort of HOPED it was a reference to them. I don't knowif BD ever confirmed or denied it.

As for "What's the story with BB?".......well......Once upon a time in a land far far away...there was a small BED & BREAKFAST...........the end

Jagger regularly introduced it as a "song written about us by Bob Dylan". His intro was quite obviously tongue-in-cheek, though.

BB King opened for them in '69...
Could that have anything to do with it?
