The Rolling Stones vs. The Beatles
 
which do you prefer, and why? id hafta say the stones, because they were much more diverse than the beatles, and to me, the beatles songs all sound the same.

I point you in the direction of this thread that says everything i`d like to express here

^^^^^^ couldn't have said it better if I tried.

The beatles by a long shot, the abbey road album has songs which are still musicly ahead of stuff today

adidasss 07-19-2005 12:50 PM

the rolling stones, they were pure rock way back in the begining of the sixties while the beatles were still singing their lollipop music for the girlies ( "i wanna hold your hand, i wanna hold your hand..."....please....)

Orange_Plectrum 07-19-2005 02:21 PM

The Beatles for definate I say. The musical geneius involved in revolver, abbey road and sgt.peppers is just amazing. Well thats what I think anyway...

itchytasty 07-19-2005 04:01 PM

Stones. I was raised on 'em.

Sneer 07-20-2005 03:10 AM

the beatles- i adore them. to those say they lack diversity may i point out the fact that their early career was the complete antithesis to their latter career. their experimentation with brass, time pieces and other sound effects opened up new avenues for other bands in the late 70s. but hey sure a lot of you disagree.

pure rock?

anyway, i like beatles better, their music ranges so much, from happy love ballads to psycadelia to crazy distortion blues songs.
i like rollin stones but alotta their songs sound the same

Urban Hat€monger ? 07-20-2005 10:51 AM

I think it`s rather unfair to say the Beatles never evolved.

It just so happens that I think what they evolved into was ****

Sneer 07-20-2005 01:47 PM

still, beats doing the same thing over and over again for 40+ years doesnt it. and dont even mention beggars banquet because the stones and psychedelia just does not blend well.

Urban Hat€monger ? 07-20-2005 02:58 PM

They didn`t do psychadelia on Beggars Banquet

Sneer 07-20-2005 03:24 PM

my ears must decieve me because it sounds like an experimentation with psychedelics here.

Urban Hat€monger ? 07-20-2005 05:53 PM

You must be thinking of Satanic Majesties & Flowers

Both of which are crap

Beggars Banquet is full on R&B , in the old sense of the word.

Zygomycota 07-21-2005 12:54 AM

I'm leaning towards The Beatles. Man, they are one of the first bands I got into. I love 'em!

****...yes your right i did get the ****ers muddled up. shows how much i like the stones eh..

Urban Hat€monger ? 07-21-2005 09:26 AM

Well come on

How many psychadelia album covers have a picture of a dirty , graffiti covered public toilet

Sneer 07-21-2005 09:30 AM

yes yes fair point. in that case the album i was listening to (their satanic majesties request) is poo compared to the magical mystery tour. (just my opinion.)

Urban Hat€monger ? 07-21-2005 09:46 AM

Satanic Majesties Request is poo compared to about 90% of anything the Stones did *



* If you ignore everything after Undercover Of The Night

What about Led Zeppelin!?!?!??! What does that have to do with this thread?

tdoc210 07-21-2005 06:25 PM

just that their better than both of them combined

anticipation 07-21-2005 07:32 PM

no their not. they are worse than the beatles.

Zygomycota 07-21-2005 08:20 PM

In my opinion, Bonham's a better drummer than Ringo. But I digress...

anticipation 07-22-2005 09:37 AM

well i dont like either, but if i had to choose, i would pick the beatles, which is besides the point that this is a Stones/Beatles thread

Who isn`t?

Apart from Meg White maybe

nod 07-22-2005 09:27 PM

why vote? the beetles we're always stoned

Zygomycota 07-22-2005 10:53 PM

...heh heh...Meg White gets tons of money for doing the same beat over and over again in every song...I'm still goin' with the Beatles.

TheBig3 07-23-2005 05:32 AM

Uh huh, and she still makes better music than you. Thats gotta suck.

tdoc210 07-23-2005 11:12 AM

No need to blame her. Jack's the one that told her not to practice much, to get some sort of childish sound he was looking for.

tdoc210 07-23-2005 11:21 AM

wow what a screwed up band

Soundgardener 07-23-2005 11:32 AM

Not really. The songwriting and creativeness in the music really overpowers how good or bad Meg's chops are. Jack White is a great musician and he has some experiencing in drumming (being his first instrument before guitar). I believe what ever they decide to do as a band is right for the kind of music they are doing.

Urban Hat€monger ? 07-23-2005 12:09 PM

Wow I`ve started a drumming debate

Which is kind of ironic really becuase I don`t give a flying **** about drummers or musos.

That's pretty cool.

.angie. 07-23-2005 05:13 PM

i definetly like the stones better. the beatles were just annoying, in my opinion of course.

sleepy jack 07-23-2005 05:31 PM

I hate both of them.

.angie. 07-23-2005 05:35 PM

Ahh! But Why?!

Yeah, now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go cry in my scarf.

Still Beatles.
