And in a 5 year time period listed below, The Beatles gave us some gems of their own:

Help!, Rubber Soul, Revolver, Sgt. Pepper, Magical Mystery Tour, The White Album, Abbey Road and Let It Be.

Again, to each is own, but in my eyes, there is no comparison to the two.

You simply don\'t get it (see my weekend instructions for you... it\'ll help). Trying to compare these 2 bands is like trying to jerk off with your own feet. At first it may seem like a fun idea, but you quickly cramp up and then you never end up getting anywhere.

They are not on the same level as Elvis, The Beatles or Bob Dylan.

what the hell level is that? the level where overrated musicians hang out with the beatles

As previously stated, I believe they have their place in rock history, just not as high up as The Beatles. That\'s my opinion.

Your weekend instructions won\'t work for me for multiple reasons - 1. I won\'t spend money on a stones album / 2. The fungus thing ain\'t gonna happen.

Plain and simple, for the most part, I don\'t like the music. Asking me to buy and listen to a RS album, would be like asking me to buy a Prince album and listen to it.

As for all the hype on their live shows, I saw them on the Voodoo Lounge tour because my dad couldn\'t make the show and I got his ticket. Sorry, but it did nothing for me.

I\'ve personally given this band a chance, they just aren\'t my cup of tea.

for that matter......keiths a better guitarist than either lennon or harrison and he wasn\'t as good as brian jones or mick taylor. mcartney isn\'t any better than bill wyman and just for posterity....i\'ll say that billy preston and nicky hopkins are a wash as well. while it\'s a good point about the beatles albums during that time, noone was questioning their abilities or status in rock and roll history, just the stones. oh....and.....let it be isnt far from terrible IMHO.

Whoa. You had me until you suggested that mccartney isn\'t any better than wyman. I am obligated to call shannanigans.
McCartney is objectively in a different galaxy in terms of technical skill (not to mention singing and songwriting).

At this point, we should probably start comparing the Who with Led Zeppelin: This, too, can go on infinitum.

I don\'t know why i felt the need to start reading your posts again, but you\'ve done a great job showing that you are a closed minded, humorless simpleton. Be gone with you...

Th Beatles vs The Stones....Zep vs The Who....Can we change the subject and talk about something a little less controversial?

How do you feel Jesus vs Alah??

Not everyone has to like all bands. I\'ve had over 20 years to digest TRS and it just isn\'t working. And yes, I may be humorless to you, I\'m not going anywhere.........................
