Not that they had a lot to start with, mind you. I don't suppose it was really the point.

When did they last have a top 20 single?
1995, with their not-unlistenable version of 'Like a Rolling Stone'. But their only self-penned Top 20 hit in the last 21 years(!) was 'Love Is Strong'.

Their incessant touring is just a huge money-making circus!! I mean a 60 yr old prancing about like summat not reight, shouting "I'm jumping Jack flash"!!!............Pack it in you sad old man!
I'm a Beatles man all the way. But a workmate is going to see the Stones soon, so he's (rashly) attempting to familiarise himself with the entire catalogue and he insists on lending me some of the CDs, which has led me to the conclusion that I like the Stones a little bit more than I thought.
I'm listening to Metamorphosis at the moment, and I even made it through almost half of Bridges to Babylon.
There are still far too many bad Stones records though.
