I think the Stones HAVE gained more respect by hanging around and still delivering live, but surely recording "Voodoo Lounge" and "No Security" et al hasn't done their rep any good. To me, it's not the Beatles vs the Rolling Stones it's the Beatles vs Everyone Else and no one else comes close. However, you say "band" so maybe I'm cheating, but that Dylan guy is holding up pretty well.Michael in New Yorkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01449933463450154603noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20710455.post-1165260550097540912006-12-04T14:29:00.000-05:002006-12-04T14:29:00.000-05:00What some people may find amazing is how well the ...What some people may find amazing is how well the Beatles hold up compared to other bands from their time period. How many other bands from the '60s keep finding new generations of fans year after year. I was recently told by a man I respect that he thought the Rolling Stones, by sheer longevity and number of albums recorded make them the top band from the '60s by default. I informed him that there were several composers from the late 18th century who composed many more pieces that Mozart, but he probably wouldn't recognize them. He smiled, nodded, and took my point.Robert Rousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07029114161553100445noreply@blogger.com
