Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Always been a huge Beatles fan but I think that's just down to personal preference. The Stones are a better band.

Got no respect for them as people though - complete sell outs after the Bittersweet Symphony incident.

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

no matter waht happened u cant take it away that they were the best band to come out of england and conquer basically everywere......

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

was fortunate to see both bands in there prime.Stones fer me every time.

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Not my favourite bands by any means,i always prefered the Kinks personally but even though the Stones did some really good songs i can't see past the Beatles.
What they did for music and the sheer number of songs they did that everybody knows well for me Beatles>Stones.

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

saw them both stoes at nelson,beatles at darwen,
saw the kinks also at rawtenstall
got to say the beatles came just about the time when music
was at a stand still imho,gave it a kick start
then bands like the stones and the who really took over
stones every time for me for that era :alright:

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Was that at the imperial Beechy?

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

the nelson imp back in the early sixties
all the greats of the time played there

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Ive heard loads of stories about it..a big revolving circular stage and i hears that Stevie Wonder didnt know it revolved and fell off lol

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

The Stones for me..........The Beatles, esp McCartney get right on my nerves and are very much over exposed thanx to most modern bands thinking they ARE The Beatles....I can`t deny the influence they have had and some of the tunes are classics but as it personal choice....THE STONES for me

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

i do like the beatles' music but now keen on the actual band.we studied the beatles in college (specifically their harmonys)


I am grateful to the stones for influencing my favourite band :D:D:D

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

The Beatles' harmonies were awful compared to one of my favourite bands - the Eagles :cool:

& Poco.

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

the beatles harmonies were easy to do............ in harmony and counterpoint we were given pieces of music with the harmonies taken out and we were told to harmonise in the style of beethoven,bach, the beatles lol etc........

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

for harmonies ..read.. everly bros..platters..ink spots..andrew sisters

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Wasn't anything to do with the band. ABKCO and Andrew Loog Oldham were doing the suing - ABKCO because they own the publishing rights (and not the Stones) Oldham was suing because it's his Orchestra that's playing on the Verve's classic song.

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Oh give me The Rolling Stones everytime,,,even the slow songs like Lady Jane were great..but the fast ones were brilliant

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

While my guitar gently weeps.
Something
Here comes the sun
Taxman
Not bad for the third best song writer in a band

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Beatles for me.....liked the Kinks too......Eagles were another of my favourites......Everley Bros......they were all melodic music makes.
I didn't like the Stones......and Elvis really gave me the pips(and still does)!

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

At last somebody else who doesn't like Elvis, never did out for me, as for the groups, I liked both the Beatles and the Stones, together with lots of others from around tha time Hollies, Searchers, Mersey Beats, Cream, The Move, Small Faces, could go on forever

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

I think most people here know I like Elvis. :D

I like the Beatles too, love the Beachboys and the Four Seasons; lots of 50s and 60s music I enjoy but I have very wide-ranging tastes in music, particularly from the 20s, 30s and 40s. I'm a Big Band fanatic, especially Glenn Miller but, anyone ever listened to Jimmie Rodgers (the original - the "Singing Brakeman" - died of TB in 1933)? What about Big Bill Broonzy? Sticking my neck out, here, with a clip of Big Bill - this is real guitar blues.

YouTube - Big Bill Broonzy plays "Hey Hey"

Sorry, I'm hijacking the thread. Of the 2, I much prefer the Beatles. ;)

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

the stones everytime their first album took music to a new level.the stones have influenced most musicians in britain from primal scream to david gray and im still finding gems off their albums now....ive just found a cover they did of just my imagination by the temptations it takes the song to a new level..

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Its really indicative that the Stones were influenced by the American blues singers like Muddy Waters, Howling Wolf etc and it showed in lot of their earlier work

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

everybody is influenced by somebody be it your dad yer mum ,the stones ,muddy ,chuck berry as keith was .people used to learn off other influences like people they met.today all they do is watch crap on telly and they think its alright because they dont know better..:rolleyes:


:theband::Dtime is on my side

Re: the Beatles vs The Rolling Stones
 

Lady Jane-Mothers Little Helper-Stupid Girl-Under my Thumb-Doncha Bother Me-I Am Waiting-Out Of Time-Going Home-Take It Or Leave It.

After-Math - a great Stones album and fits together like a text message.How did they know all those years ago?

Still prefer the Beatles though.:dancedog:
