Also, I choose this comparison because they are both groups heavily influenced by the blues and are often debated. Most places I've seen it Aerosmith is the more popular choice, but I haven't found a well backed pro-Aerosmith argument yet. Personally it's good to see strong Stones support though! There are many pairings of two bands you could debate, but this is the one I find the most interesting and that I have a stronger opinion on.
You say you haven`t listened to any Aerosmith albums apart from a greatest hits, why don`t you listen to both "Toys in the Attic" and "Rocks" a couple of times and then you can really have an opinion on the band, their sound here is far removed from what is a greatest hits package of the 80`s onwards.
