Beatles vs. Stones


Which do you prefer?

I'd have to go with the Rolling Stones although I do love Revolver.

And you?

Stones are short of bassist and percussionist while Beatles are only bass and drums.  Just saying.

Apples vs oranges.  I like both, but to me Beatles are "oldies" while Rolling Stones are still modern.  Perhaps it was aggressiveness of Stones music, that kept them alive.  Yes, The Beatles created many new trends (melodic bass, inclusion of classical etc), but when I, as a young boy, heard Satisfaction for the first time I was stunned - "is it even allowed to play like that"?
