    Either I never got into the Stones or I heard every song way too many times by the age of 5 and it was over

    Rolling Stones = 60's buttrock IMO. Like the 60's version of Warrant or some other shit band but one that made it bigger due to the charisma of the band members and the tabloid circus of their private lives. Never heard a song from them that really caught on with me. So it's Crosby by default.

    I'm hearing you can get the entire Stone's catalog on CD from Amazon at reasonable prices.

    Stones are Kobe, Wilt, Kareem status.

    CSN&Y is Doug Christie.

    There are two Rolling Stoneses on some level: the Mick Stones which is just “let’s do what everyone else is doing” and the Keith Stones which produced all their classic work.

    If you just take the Keith Stones, they are as good as anyone... the Mick Stones are basically Stone Temple Pilots.

    Some oversimplification here, but the poont becomes mor valid post Exile. Mick is the OG bad boy front man in Rock and everyone that came thereafter owes him a debt.

    I’m talking about songwriting. Mick’s direction always led to Ruby Tuesday, Satanic Majesty’s and Shattered.

    Keith’s songwriting produced Street Fighting Man, Gimmie Shelter, etc.

    Mick is a truly great frontman.

    You know what fucking crazy though about Mick following the trendy bands in 1966- 67, is that "Ruby Tuesday / Let's Spend The Night Together" might have been better than anything the Beatles did on Pepper or Magical Mystery Tour. It's one of the greatest double A sides ever. And Between the Buttons and Stanic's Majesties are loaded with great Stones "deep" tracks that many here have never fucking heard. 2000 man is fucking amazing.

    Stone Temple Pilots were amazing. I wish I would have seen them live.

    I actually saw them open for MegaDeth in the early 90's before anyone knew who they were. I remember thinking to myself, I hope that lead singer up there dies of an overdose one day.

    They were fucking terrible live. Tbh, so was Megadeth.

    Also saw Stone Temple Pilots live opening for someone else, did not think enough of them to even wish death upon them(safe post). Went and waited in the shortened beer line instead.

    Saw Megadeath live once but maybe in the mid 2000's? with Iron Maiden? Can't remember. Also can't remember if it was their original line up or not. Either way, they were really good.

    CSN&Y had exactly two good songs (Judy Blue Eyes and Southern Cross), neither of which would crack the Stones' Top Ten

    Woodstock was good. Wooden Ships was good. Ohio was actually a CSNY song and is incredible.

    But you're mostly right. CSN were mostly undeserving of Young's assistance, as he repeatedly realized. They'd do well in a singer/ songwriter battle with the likes of Jim Croce, Cat Stevens, James Taylor etc.
