      It’s probably the most important questions I’ve ever been asked, actually. Now, I’ve named my dog Ruby Tuesday, so you might think I am biased. But the Beatles discography, musical styles, and cultural influence really are unmatched by anyone of the era. The Stones, while great and influential in and of themselves, lack the technical savvy and innovation you see in the Beatles (back tracking, the use of strings, psychedelic popularization and Indian influences).

      Tough question!!! Depending on my mood I could go with the Beatles or Rolling Stones both are great and slightly different styles of pop vs rock.
      If I have to choose, I will choose the Beatles 🙂

      Haha I love this question! I’m going to go with the Beatles- I got to visit their museum in London and fell in love with them in my teens so they get my vote but both are amazing!

      So important!!!!! hahahaha!! Great question.
      Honestly – the answer has been Rolling Stones for me my whole life. Up until now….I am starting an era of appreciating the Beatles in a whole new way 😀
