Q Magazine Presents: The Beatles vs. The Rolling Stones

[rubberdingyrapids]

sunshine of your love is immense though. when hendrix did it at least.

 

[craner]

Cream! Often forget about them but they were huge. Were the Kinks too peculiar to make it into the top 3? I'd have thought they had more hits.

There is a radio station that broadcasts across Georgia, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana that fetishises British rock and American garage, and these were by far the most played British groups.

 

[luka]

i cant stand the who. never heard cream outside of sunshine which is a very good riff even i enjoy that song. i always used to associate
it with the a-team theme music.

 

[craner]

Eric Clapton is one of the reasons why Thirdform is right about British music.

 

[Benny Bunter]

Cream - 1 good song

The Who - amazing for first few singles then awful

You can say that about a lot of bands though.

 

[craner]

Can I just point out for the benefit of anybody who is getting confused by my posts, I wasn't saying these are my favourite bands!

 

[luka]

1.cream
2.the who
3.the rolling stones
and furthermore i beleive townsend when he said he was just conducting research for a book

there are still plenty of classic rock stations that still play that stuff every day. not a day goes by when they haven't played "Baba O'Reilly" or some shit.

MOJO radio.

This is not a funny post, stop laughing at it.

 

[luka]

Et tu, Corpsey?

 

[boxedjoy]

imagine all Beatles songs sounded like this, maybe then they would be good

 

[Leo]

Ronnie Wood, age 75 ... Mick Jagger, age 78 ... and Keith Richards, age 78, perform yesterday in Liverpool, England, during the Rolling Stones' Sixty Tour ('62-'22).

 

[Corpsey]

Reading about Tom Verlaine, apparently this song inspired him to write rock music


I have heard this before but not in ages

 

[linebaugh]

you can hear it in that opening riff

 

[Corpsey]

Maybe I don't prefer the Beatles after all

The early rolling stones stuff fucks

 

[Corpsey]

It's quite hard to see why you'd fancy the Beatles over the stones back then

Maybe if you were some bloody swot suck up prepubescent goddamn etc

 

[pattycakes_]

The Beatles suck

 

[pattycakes_]

The Stones too
