Regarding the quasi flame about how 'great' the Stones are: <<flame on>> Why do the Stones seem to be on the back edge of of today's music. 'Undercover' is nothing more than music to make millions for them. They should call it quits because, quite frankly, their music is getting rather boring these days. As far as that popoff about Billy Idol et. al, goes, THOSE are the bands that are making waves AHEAD of the Stones. So go ahead and keep buying those Stone's albums, because it leaves better records for me! <<flame off>>

I read an article in Billboard the other day stating that the Stones' album Undercover is the worst selling album per the duration the album has been out in the past few Stones album releases. It's not surprising considering that the Stones, who were *the* rock band for the past few years, are being challenged this year by Def Leppard, Yes and others. ... never be your beast of burden ... ... never never never never never never never be ... -- --greg {decvax!genrad, eagle!mit-vax, ihnp4}!mit-eddie!gds (UUCP) Gds@XX (ARPA)
