Pete Townshend is a genius. Tommy became a Broadway musical.
He's not just a 3 chord trick.

The Who were great, The Stones were great, and The Beatles were great once George Martin got his hands on them.

Because the Stones had more line-ups than the Beatles, I think there's more variety to what The Stones can offer, be it Brian Jones era Stones, be it Mick Taylor era Stones or Ron Wood era Stones. You get a little more variety with the Stones.
