Same here. I feel the Stones are generally underrated by the music community. The classic rock bores tend to focus on more psychadelic rock, since Ive never met a college kid with a Zeppelin shirt that's a fan of 'Beggars Banquet', and alot of people on here and other forums seem to dismiss them due to their lackluster post 1978 output.

Really the only people who rate them well are the aging hipsters who now make enough money to pay $400 a ticket to watch people who used to be talented decay in front of them, and nobody really takes their musical opinion seriously anyway.
