The Beatles vs. The Rolling Stones

I'd take the Stones over the Beatles in a bar brawl.

pre-Yoko...now...doesn't matter. Stones in two rounds by a knockout.

Ha! That's good Celebrity Death Match stuff.

If you have not seen the DVD "Hail, HAil Rock and Roll" which documents Keith putting together a band/concert for Chuck Berry , ya should. It shows just how great Keith and Chuck are.
Also, it's almost scary that several times Keith comes off as the "voice of reason".

I saw that show. Fascinating.

NO FAIR!!! Home field advantage.

OK. Fair enough. Let's make it a fair fight. On the sidewalk at Abbey Road. Mick can be barefoot. Yoko can't particpate. That'd be five on four.

If you need to find Mrs. Wyman, I'd suggest the girls department at Harrod's. ;)

Uncle.

IMO, the works of Bach, Beethoven, Mozart, etc. stay fresher because they are constantly reinterpreted by conductors and musicians. Just look the debates aficionados have about the merits of many recorded versions of the same symphonies.

The Beatles' music, on the other hand, is primarily heard the same way every time as performed and recorded by the lads,(not counting interpretations used in commercials). I can understand how someone might be burned out by over saturation.
