    Two things. Keith Richards is getting old and the Stones are still the best rock band ever! Or as KISS' Paul Stanley said, "When you start talking about the best rock bands, the Stones cast the largest shadow." [During a VH1 interview]

    There is no way a take on this story avoids being spun by the hysterical, outstretched arms of the Onion.

    Even being slavish, shameless imitators of the Beatles for almost the entire length of their career. ;) ;D

    The Beatles were a "Pop" band, not Rock. The Stones rocked, the Beatles did not.

    "Revolution," "Helter Skelter," and "Back In The U.S.S.R." Thanks for playing. ;)

    "I want to hold your hand", "Here comes the sun,"Can't buy me Love." Those are all pop songs, not rock. The Stones were Rock not Pop. The two bands played completely different types of music, however, only one of the two bands was a Rock band. Sorry you can't see that.

    "As Tears Go By," "Ruby Tuesday," "Dandelion," "We Love You," are not Rock songs either. They are, however, shameless imitations by a band unabashedly trying to copy its superior.

    Sorry I've forgotten more about music than you'll ever know.

    "For all our success, we were just a pretty good R and B band." - Paul McCartney during a VH1 interview. One of the band members admits it himself. They weren't a rock band. Get over it.
