Wow that sounds more like something that jackass Pete Townsend would say.

When you’re a well-seasoned rocker, I guess you can get away with flapping your gums. Either way, he’s on solid ground, except that I’d take Charlie Watts over Keith Moon.

Pete may be too busy doing computer “research” on deviancy.

He’s not exactly wrong, except I always thought the Stones were the ultimate garage band. That said, I never understood The Who’s popularity either.

The Stones are a very good blues band.

I’ve spoken to him lots of times here in L.A. His “hobby” is to go to the small record shops because he hated people bothering him at Amoeba, One of the small record shops is in Los Feliz/Silverlake area and he just walks there. He’s not a lib, that’s for sure. (grin)

I look at a band’s great song rate over their entire catalog . Both these groups are similar in the 10 -15% great range, but the Stones have a more extensive collection. Slight advantage to the Stones. Very subjective obviously.

Funny I would’ve describe it exactly the opposite. Who isn’t even qualified to be a backup band stones.
To: V_TWIN
Pete though has said repeatedly that he’s a huge Stones fan.

Exile and then Some Girls were the last “great” Stones albums, everything outside of that since 1972 has mostly been hit or miss.

The Stones are vastly overrated but their longevity is remarkable.
The Doors, while they did have some odd tracks, were far superior musically. Unfortunately Jim joined the 27 Club and the band flopped as a trio, breaking up in ‘73.

I’ll put The Who’s output from 68 to 73, up with anything. That includes a lot of the songs that didn’t even make it onto the albums.
Pete did seem to lose interest in The Who after Quadrophenia.

Seems it’s been open season on the Stones since Charlie passed.
