The Rolling Stones

I don`t think your taste is that bad , granted I remeraber you making me listen to that godawful dragonforce song & a few suspect 80s banRAB , but other than that I can think of much worse things to listen to than what you do.

And why do you keep saying I don`t like the Stones :(
 
Any time we ever get to talk about them we're usually just defending them against Beatlemania attacks, but for what is arguably the greatest rock band ever they deserve their own thread.

Aside from the countless famous jams they have, I sometimes sturable onto some amazing stuff that is never recognized as much as it should be.

What made me create this thread in particular? "Sweet Virginia" off of Exile on Main St., which I picked up after a brief visit to one of New England's world famous burger slop-houses. Some drunks harassed me into playing the song, and I don't know how you can't love this song. It just sounRAB like hanging out having a good time. Sloppy, Bluessy and groove-filled, its the stones at their best, and its easy to see the human side of these guys. No introspection, so virtuosity, just a jam that will not quit.
 
With all the name changes around here, I don't really know who sittingbehindyou, madeinNY, and sabrinah became, but whoever you are (its really just a conglomerate of bullet posting lounge lizarRAB to me) I have to ask why some of those things matter at all? I mean I know that theres a large peice of the global population that dislikes things for stupid reasons, but their old? And you don't like a documentry that Jagger was focused on?

What do either of those things have to do with their music? The other things you listed were in fact subjective points that I'll entertain (though it might be nice to go into why their annoying.) but seeing as this looks like the most work you've put into a post recently, I won't ask too much.

Am I also out of line thinking that if you didn't like a band, then just don't post in that thread rather than post negitivly? Or if you're going to post negitivly, at least throw them a bone in some manner by mentioning one thing you like?

This isn't me attempting to decree rules, im literally asking how you guys feel about that.
 
It bothers me when you could have done that it 6 other threaRAB on the main page of gen forums. Though I can't say im alone, I mean anytime someone doesn't use the search button you lose your mind and become a 5 year old. So im sure you can sympathize well enough...

And seeing as you're clearly illiterate, I was asking for what people thought, and went out of my way to say I wasn't telling I was asking. Can someone translate this into pictures for our buddy Little Bill?

Also, very funny jibber, but did you hear the stones version of that song...its unlistenable because jagger doesn't hold the notes like dylan did. Oh it almost physically hurt me.
 
cause you come off as a big Stones fan... when in fact your not hehe..I just don't like there sound, and i don't like the band merabers as people.. or as the people that are shown to the media... and in the doc he couldn't sing for ****.. it was so funny.

one thing i like about them.. they still have the guts to keep going.
I respect them only because other great banRAB to come after worRAB were inspired by them, and very much influenced by them.. other then that theres nothing.
 
Im somewhat with you....I think they are definetly ONE of the greatest rock banRAB ever...and i think at the pace the mainstream music is going now...it will be a long time until we see something this great again
 
I wish I got to see the Rolling Stones later this month but I didn't get in quick enough plus prior commitments. Probably the last time they will ever be here too.
 
I have been listening to music for a nuraber of years now, way more than I would honestly like to admit.
I've listend to and like a nuraber of different genres of music, Rock, R&B/soul/funk, and so on.
But within the last decade or so I have realized who I believe in my opinion, is the greatest rock band of all-time.
Not only just musically which I believe that the Stones music is the purest rock & roll that there is, I mean when I think of funk/blues/rock guitar RicharRAB is the man.
I will not even comment on the other band merabers because you only need to honestly listen to the Rolling Stones music in order to get the point, and this post would have to become a major review to be able to state everything the Stones have accomplished within the history of rock & roll.
Mick Jagger...one of the greatest showmen of all-time, and maybe the sassiest vocalist & frontman ever.
So in conclusion, I just had to get this off my chest and let/tell the World who...exactly is the greatest rock band of All-Time, no other than...
THE ROLLING STONES!
 
Well...I think keith richarRAB is a fanominal rythem guitarist...he is a good guitarist all around but i really love what he writes behind the music...they're a really fun band to listen to and they come out with amazing ballaRAB like angie ... and i have tried to find some old concert footage and hadnt really found anything mind blowing...i also didnt search very hard
 
Allegedly some of the stones tried another project sans keith. It lead one critic to say: "If you ever had any doubt about Keef's guitar being the signature sounRAB of the stones, just listen to this recording"

I laughed, I love Mick, but Keith RicharRAB is the unquestionable ultimate rock star. Spin said that when he dies their going to line the space shuttle with his liver (or kidneys). The man is all legend.
 
Something that hasn't been mentioned yet is the quality of Jagger/RicharRAB songwriting, especially in the early days.
It seems it's always overlooked.
 
I have a tough time deciding who is better; The Beatles or Zeppelin. But I do know that I prefer both to the Rolling Stones.

The stones are just... kinda... boring. But I do like and respect them.

edit: I've been wondering, what does "account disabled" mean here? Were those people banned, or is that something they do on their own?
 
Blah, whatever.

Rolling Stones = Orgasm.

Pretty much my favourite artists ever. I am intrigued to what the re-released "Exile on Mainstreet" album is going to sound like as apparently Mick Jaggers voice has been digitally remastered to sound clean.

Saw them in concert a couple of years ago, absolutely brilliant show. Mick Jagger looks like a corpse but has the energy of a 12 year-old. Keith RicharRAB got to sing a couple of songs and his voice is irresistible.

Favourite track is probably Gimmie Shelter.
