Beast Of Burden is a nice little throwaway tune - but in terms of composing and arranging and pure musicianship, the Beatles were light years ahead of the Stones. | |

It's hardly their funkiest excursion. The little remembered "Hot Stuff" swings some funk tho. This post not for the wimp contingent. All whiny wusses avert your eyes. | |

I luv the Beatles, but the Stones made such great stuff in the seventies, they have a better catalog for being around so long. | |

I'd put the Stones' classic period (Beggars Banquet through Exile on Main Street) up with the best of the Beatles. The Beatles were a great group, undeniably, but the Stones are the best "rock" group ever. Every rock group since has taken something from them, whether it be image, sound, performance. Even the bands that tried hard to rebel against them used the Stones as a prototype for how not to be rock stars. I'm the first mammal to wear pants. | |

Hey, flip that record over (Emotional Rescue) and play that tune called "Dance"...some underrated funk there... " I've got six things on my mind --you're no longer one of them." - Paddy McAloon, Prefab Sprout | |

I love The Rolling Stones version. I didn't know The Beatles had one. Hell, I even liked the Bette Midler remake in the 1980s with Mick Jagger in the video. Andy is a four letter word. | |

The Stones, on the other hand, are more my thang. And they've made some seriously funky records ... which The Beatles never did. The closest The Beatles came was Macca's "Coming Up".

Interesting point concerning musicianship. It's not so easy: Charlie Watts vs. Ringo on drums George vs. Mick Taylor on lead guitar Keef vs. John on rhythm guitar Paul vs. anyone on various instruments Brian Jones vs. anyone on various instruments *****************************************

I don't think there was a Beatles version of Beast of Burden. It was just used as an opportunity to slam the obviously superior Beatles. | |

works like this for me
the beatles are my "good cop"/"good angel" perched on right shoulder St. John Lennon whispers good intentions... the stones are the "bad cop/bad angels" Keef yells the mantra winewomensong/sexdrugsrockandroll posture your mandables towards the sky
and oscilate them in an apathetic manner throw your hands in the air and wave 'em like you just don't care | |

Yeah, if you're on valium. I prefer The Jam's "Start!". There are three sides to every story. My side, your side, and the truth. And no one is lying. Memories shared serve each one differently | |

I always thought "Savoy Truffle" was a funky little song...

Apple and oranges, as with the Zeppelin vs. Pink Floyd thread IMO. But if I had to pick one band between the two, I'd go with the Beatles. When I put the Beatles on, I just end up listening to them all day long. I can't say I do that with the Stones, although I do love them as well.
