gotta give it to neil on albums, but for individual songs i think the stones has more undeniable works of genius.
saying this is as a huuuuuuuuuge neil young fan, but i don't think i like anything of his as much as "paint it black", "street fighting man", jumpin' jack flash", etc.

The Stones' eighties were more consistent than Young's, if consistency is your thing.

they were much better at singles than albums for most of the 60s. I find a lot of early Stones stuff fairly laughable tbh - next to their contemporaries (the Who, the Kinks, the Beatles, etc.) it's kind of ridiculous the amount of crap they got away with releasing.

Apart from the fact that the Stones recorded more great songs and great albums than Young, they were also snappier dressers. And did stuff like Performance, One Plus One, R&R Circus, Invocation of my Demon Brother, etc. Jagger even got dumped from Fitzcarraldo which is pretty cool. They helped fund Jodorowski I think right? Or was that just Klein? Sweet logo too.
In Neil Young's favor there's the Lionel train thing.
― wk, Tuesday, 25 September 2012 21:40 (thirteen years ago)
I mean I like both, but I'm way more likely to throw on a Neil Young record than a Stones record. But that's because I'm more of a lonely-guy-thinking-baout-things type most of the time and I don't get all angsty very much anymore.

that's like giving the stones credit for everything Jack Nitzsche or Jimmy Miller did.
― wk, Tuesday, 25 September 2012 21:50 (thirteen years ago)
And I think Nitzsche worked with the Stones before he worked with Young, so the Stones should get credit for Neil Young.

I just don't get why you wouldn't count Brian Jones collaboration with the MMoJ. Because he's not the whole Stones? Or because he doesn't play on the record? I would consider a Neil Young produced album to be a NY collab.

I haven't listened to Terry Gross in a while, but the last interview I heard was with Smokey Robinson. She was dropping her g's in a really annoying way, and Smokey sounded like he was getting a little annoyed with it towards the end (a rare feat; dude is notoriously easygoing).

Look at that...I called 74-57 for the Rolling Stones, figuring they'd get most of the silent vote. So who would Neil lose to? Beatles and/or Dylan? (This is not meant as a poll suggestion.)
