As for the Stones, I think they peaked artistically in the early to late 70s, and Exile and Some Girls are the albums I listen to most. In fact, based on the criteria of which I listen to most often, I guess I'm currently more partial to the Stones...Edo Bosnarnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-83166535333346710762010-03-16T09:54:36.025-05:002010-03-16T09:54:36.025-05:00Hey folks, thanks for the book recommendations.

I was more of a Beatle fan back then, but sort of picked up the Stones later after I got into the blues (even though the blues guys do it better). Looking back now, it's sort of like apples and oranges.....each group has their merits, but they really came at music from different directions. <br /><br />It's strictly a matter of personal taste, but I listen to the Beatles more these days. I still listen to the Stones, but I usually end up listening more to the blues artists that influenced them.<br /><br />The Beatles have a book similar to the one starfoxxx described, that covers each song they recorded. It's called Tell Me Why.<br /><br />DarpyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5293155946761960913.post-14808126198089915062010-03-15T15:04:47.849-05:002010-03-15T15:04:47.849-05:00Now this is a topic i can truly appreciate, as i&#...Now this is a topic i can truly appreciate, as i'm a big music fan, esp. these two. I grew up with my mom's beatles records, but as my tastes have matured, i gotta go with the stones. I gotta admit, I'm particular to STICKYFINGERS and GOATSHEADSOUP over the "almighty" EXILE. I have to recommend a nifty book, RIP THIS JOINT, which gives brief synopsis' for every Stones song, check it out.<br /><br />starfoxxxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
