those two and motown and you got the stones they would take motown licks right and left and cover motown songs all the time, under my thumb was a out and out motown rip off not the lyrics the music

You're right, my mathematician friend, I shall now provide the ultimate formula:
Chuck Berry + Muddy Waters
_________________________ = Stones
The Temptations
don't think of this analogy as a direct comparison, Beatles or Rollingstones, to me it's thought-out pop experimentation vs. raw rock 'n roll.

::Looks for pistol:: what the fuck did you say
jack white is a kid who learned about the blues from indie rockers in the 90's, he just so happens to have more talent then jon spencer, but thats who he learned about the blues from
but the stones ???? are you kidding me some of his new shit sounds like led zep with out jimmy page and bonam just robert plant
the wu tang clan plus the charlie daniels band plus brian adams plus chuck norris = jack johnson

that was sarcasm, right?
Please let that be sarcasm...
i was just making one of those insane comprasions like
" paul oakenfeld= duran duran
for god sakes i said chuck norris in there too the red headed porn star looking karate master and texas ranger ta boot
yeah but comparisons only get better with more bizarre references, just not shitty untalented references.
well, I guess norris is kinda shitty, but he's sooo cheesy that he by default becomes somewhat cool again...

here you have the right idea, the Stones and Beatles aren't alike at all in their styles of music, that's the point...the Stones are raw, rock 'n roll, loud and emotional, the Beatles are high-gloss pop geniuses, precise and beautiful....the quote and the category is how this is meant, argue which category other bands fit into, Rollingstones or Beatles, this is not to say any of the artists' mentioned are as good as the Stones or Beatles

here you are way off base...the Stripes are raw, their music happens in a way that would put them into the Stones category for me....this has nothing to do with street cred, who Jack ripped off, or how much you want to kill me...or if i like the band

Yep, I agree with the Dylan one...
Aimee Mann = Beatles

no doubt about that
Tori Amos='Stones

The Hives= Stones
too obvious category:

Aerosmith= Stones
Where would you guys place Smashing Pumpkins... this is stupid....
the Smashing Pumpkins is a tough one, there is room for discussion, argument.....early Pumpkins was more Rollingstones, the latter was more Beatles....Corgan fucks up the whole categorization of this, he's Beatles, the band is 'Stones
as far as i'm concerned this gives more of an angle than "I love Sigur Ros...discuss"
Quote from: Vile5Blur= Beatles

Yeah, but that makes the Stones look like shit.
Quote from: moonshineras far as i'm concerned this gives more of an angle than "I love Sigur Ros...discuss"
Yeah, because I would kill everybody who said otherwise...
jack white has talent but in 95 he was just another kid who liked sebadoh and pavement and jon spencer
and via spencer and all those fake artsy blues bands from new york he learned about the blues
and now he is saying he grew up on the blues but his in interviews have been inconsistent
to say he has no talent would be a joke, but to say he grew up listening to blues masters like Lightning Hopkins, Blind Lemon Jefferson, barry mannilow, and Blind Willie Johnson is just wrong
he was a kid with talent who got to the blues third hand
muddy waters-the rolling stones-jon spencer and now the white stripes
but i dont see a stones like sound to them, infact i hear weird other influences like robert plant singing solo circa 71
but i hated jack white ever since he said he was never a fan of motown music, and he is from detroit , and acording to people from detroit nobody in the detroit music scene knew who they were
so he was just some sebadoh fan, with talent mind you who got lucky and made it big overseees first then kinda in america
since everyone talks about them but nobody really sings their songs like we do " crazy in love" by beyonce

I'am going to write a book about it.
Oasis = mos def the BEATLES
On the brit-pop documentary 'Live Forever', Noel was taking the piss out Liam cause he used to pay close attention music mags, and at one point thought about telling the rest of the band to start calling him John.
Of course, trying and doing are two different things
Quote from: ®edlumOf course, trying and doing are two different things
well said! i can't stand when Liam wants to be someone he will never be...
This is stupid... and saying Oasis = the Beatles is like saying that The Cars = The Talking Heads... of course they do, that's exactly what they were going for... and they failed... oh 'cept the Cars had some good songs.
And Sigur... I like Dr. Pepper.

If you have to actually choose, deserted island and all that, you have to say Beatles.
But the only real answer is "both".
If you're comparing Oasis to The Beatles, please poke your eardrums out with a sharp metal object because you will no longer be needing them....and I should know, because I heard Oasis open up for the Crowes' 4 times, and that was 3 times too many. Bland, no energy, songs that sound all the same, and blokes who can't play their guitars even as well as Rich Robinson can. (Rich is an average to below average player, and even he blew them away when the 2 guitar players came out for the blues jam at the end.)
And its not a matter of hating the brothers Gallager (spelling?), because they were actually pretty cool to their fans.
Noel = talented
Liam = Idiot . Not that I'd say it to his face.
I remember seeing footage from a recent Who gig at the albert hall and Noel came on to play with them and Townsend said 'thank fuck you didnt bring your borther'.
You cant deny the similarities, not just in their 'looks' but take Dont Look Back in Anger, Little by Little and Stop Crying Your Heart Out. The way the music is written is even similar.
i don't like the Beatles or the Rollingstones, in a weird way, they're the reason that thousands of people haven't listened to new music for 25-30 years.......i love most Beatles or Rollinstones covers though

I saw them play with (not open for) the Crowes in Vegas. I was in front row, and loved every second. When the Crowes came on I stood there mute until Noel walked back out for the encore. Rich looked hella unimpressed. I like the Crowes, but c'mon, Oasis songs are 100% better. Whatever you think of the band, most people would kill to have an album as fucking rocking as What's The Story. I like Oasis much more than the Beatles. Ha. Bring on the hate.

The fact that you say you "like Oasis much more than The Beatles" makes any rebuttal mute....er...moot.
yeah oasis is indeed a shitty band and i have two of their albums so i know what i'm talking about. liam galagher though, is a very very funny man.
now, comparing Oasis and the Beatles, that's apples and oranges.....
Be Here Now
fucking great rock record.
I've been on a rolling stones kick. The Beatles I think were a more haromonious band and the rolling stones were the hardcore rockers. I love both but for the last two weeks I've been addicted to listening to stones record. Couldn't find a thread anywher else on the rolling stones here. Maybe I missed it but I wrote a small piece on my second favorite record that the stones ever put out. Tattoo You.
Tattoo You: The Last Great Stones Album
Anyone who knows me knows I'm a huge fan of the Rolling Stones. Behind the doors, Led zeppelin, they're my fav. band overall with the beatles and Third Eye Blind bring up the rear as far as my top 5 overall favorite bands go... (This doesn't include of course singer songwriters which have their own catagory).
Sure, now they are known as dinosaurs and trying to see the sexuality of Mick jagger now you would need at least a poud of LSD and a box of chocolate to do such a thing but in the time that this album was put up you could still see Mick as a sex object. That would certainly help tour sales.
The stones in the late 70's early 80's were falling apart, keith with his addiction and mick with his ego which is still as big as montana now. They weren't getting along and after the dismal response of Emotional Rescue and the mountain of bills they needed to go on tour again but they needed a album to tour with, as with most bands had to do those days.
So, an engineer started digging, scrounging through the rolling stones archives looking for gems and my god, did he find them. He presented them to the group (I forgot his name) and they accepted. Although some dubs had to happen for mick to sing over and some lyrics needed to be written for some other songs, the majority of the songs were done.
To be honest this is to me, the last great stones album overall (cohesively). After this they stones didn't really feel completely like themselves. Although, theres at least one or two tracks on each album after 'Tattoo you' that I love to death this is the last solid aIbum overall by mick and the gang that mattered where it didn't feel like they were going through the motions. It really works, for what it is, a collection of b sides and scrapes of songs that feel right. All of side one is really rocking with tracks like 'Hang Fire'. Side two is relaxing, extremely relaxing. So mellow I believe you could die of cancer with side 2 of this album playing the background and be okay with it, as okay as you can be when it comes to having cancer. Put on 'Heaven' right before you smoke a joint of medical mariquana that your doctor perscribed for your 'back pain' and you'll know what I'm talking about...
Sure, 'start me up' has been over played but if you want to introduce your child to the rolling stones but you don't know where to start dig into areas: 1964-1973 (they were out of world in the late 60's though) and 1978-1981. Look at the discography and pick and choose which ones again if you like but this is a strong recommended album and it really is slowly becoming fav. 'sticky fingers' always beating it out in the last second.
Another under-rated stones album is goats head soup because it came out after the epic 'exile on main street' so its not as well known but also worth a listen but I digress.
whats your favorite stone's song?? mines as tears go by.
Its 'Can't you hear me knocking?' From Sticky Fingers
My favorite is "Waiting on a friend".
