Basically agreed with Mgcreates...You're turning this into something it's not.

Yes, the stones are largely influenced by traditionally black music like blues. So what? Have they ever said otherwise?

Agreed, though, that the Stones are not the greatest of all time - they are not even the greatest of their generation (The Beatles) but I do enjoy a lot of their music...Are you telling my you don't like ANY of the following:

Honkey Tonk Woman

Wild Horses

No Satisfaction

Start Me Up

Angie

Miss You

Sympathy for the Devil

Gimme Shelter

You Can't Always Get What You Want

Beast of Burden

Come on! You have to admit are some good ones in there.
