Currently listening to Virgin Radio's annual countdown of their listeners' Favourite 500 Songs - they've just got to no. 280 and it's Angie... If they put up the whole list on their website later I'll check out how many other Stones songs have made it.

Also in the same issue in the Nominate Your Icon Of Rock series, Jaz Coleman of Killing Joke nominates Brian Jones. The article isn't on line as far as I can see, and I haven't got a scanner (it's rather longer than the KR one) but I'll try to find time to type it once I've got my Christmas cards in the post...

Take a look at this link (from the Rockman Telethon thread) and scroll down a bit, and you'll find a picture of Mick with the caption "shame about the jacket". Now take a look at the picture at the top of this thread, and tell me whose shameful jacket you reckon that is on the back of the chair in the picture?

I think the Beatles would have had the offical headliners spot. But I also think they'd have had a problem getting the crowd to stop chanting We Want The Stones for long enough to let them get on stage and play...
