I agree with NE
The Beatles are simply awesome. The scope of thier impact on music & culture is beyond comparison. Their rapid evolution from 3-chord bar-band to complex experimental musicians is astounding.
The music of The Beatles is full of beautiful melodies, layered harmonies, odd instrumentation and a very real message about love... The Rolling Stones are fast, ugly, sloppy and all about sex & violence
so of course my love for the Stones will always be just a little stronger than The Stones... but I'll take The Clash over either of them!
