Beatles were more original and innovative. Blues and blues-Rock are two of my favorite types of music, so you'd think I'd choose the stones but I definitely gotta go with the Beatles. Neither band Was very innovative when they first got started, but with time I think the Beatles definitey surpassed the stones in terms of innovativeness and originality.

Plus Beatles continued to put out great records til the end, while the Stones...well, have not.

And if the Beatles kept making albums as long as the stones, they may have made some ****ty ones. The stones would be even more legendary if they had died out like the beatles.

look, we wouldn't really know

Paul and John's solo albums have some pretty great songs

if they persisted in quality controlling each other, i'd think there'd be another 10 great albums, at least

In my opinion Led Zeppelin (and The Beatles) were just at the right place at the right time in music history, in many ways they was a product of their time. And as much as I do enjoy their music I never picked up they are mythologised by their fans.

I know your "Out Who'd the Who" comment was just tongue-in-cheek and I was just yanking your chain a bit with that one.
Pete Townsend said he got his "windmill" from something he saw Keith do. Pete Townsend and Keith Richards had else something common... they both lost guitars Pete smashed his and Keith had his stolen during a party. Not to be out done George Harrison would give away guitars and ukuleles to his friends.

George had some good solo work, too. You may very well be right.
