>White Light White Heat contains Sister Ray, which probably remains the ultimate, definitive masterpiece of rock music, an epic piece that rivals Beethoven's symphonies and John Coltrane's metaphysical improvisations.

>The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all times are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all times. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers. No wonder they will think that the Beatles did anything worthy of being saved.

The Stones are the perfect blend of blues and rock, of american music and british music. It's like what Led Zeppelin tried to do, but the Stones actually got it right, Exile on Main Street is the best rock record ever released

The music of the Stones didn't sound artificial like the Beatles either. Like the Who, the Stones were simply a great rock and roll band.

It's true though, their Beggars-Exile run (they have other great records of course) is only matched by The Beatles' Rubber Soul-White Album run, and even then, I feel like the Stones's albums have stood the test of time better. Their music is just pure rock n' roll, it just makes you feel good, while still remaining interesting and fresh, there is really no other band like them, it's fun yet original and creative, best of both worlds. Jaggers/Richards were truly a fantastic songwriting duo. Like I already said, they blended Britain's rock and America's blues and created something new. Led Zeppelin is another band that gets credited with doing the same, but they really didn't, some songs sounded like blues, and others sounded like rock, they didn't blend it as perfectly as the Stones did, and they had to use plagiarism, while the Stones have never been accused of it (yet they still managed to make better music). Their album Some Girls is a perfect bend of punk and disco, the two most prominent genres at the time, two genres that were completely isolated from each other, yet the Stones put them together in one cool ass record. And i really do believe that Exile on Main Street is the best rock record ever made, it's a fucking double album and every track is at the very least solid, there is no album that matches it's consistency (much less a double album) .

as good as Beggars Banquet and Let it Bleed are, Exile and Sticky Fingers are the band's greatest work
>>64170983
*Aftermath and Between the Buttons
>>64171003
also great, but do you really feel like they're on same level as Beggars-Exile?
This is how i'd rank them:
1. Exile
2. Sticky Fingers
3. Beggars Banquet
4. Let it Bleed
5. Some Girls
6. Aftermath
7. Between the Buttons

Zen Arcade and Double Nickles on the Dime are two double albums I would argue are, in the context of their respective genres, equally incredible.
>>64171235
Im not the biggest fan of Zen Arcade t b h, i've tried many times, but i've never really gotten into it, the first time I couldn't even make it the whole way through. And I still have to listen to Double Nickles on the Dime, haven't gotten around to it
>>64169616
I love this album, but no it doesn't
So what is the Scaruffi of other boards?
I can't think of any.
