Apr 16^th, 2008 at 7:10am To me, it's a toss up between the 60's & 70's, I'll pick the 60's, although they did great albums in the 70's, especially "Exile on Main Street" but the 60's was a fantastic era.

Reply #2 - Apr 16^th, 2008 at 7:52am Well, I think it's obvious they reached a musical peak from the late sixties to mid-seventies... And one so high, any comparisons would be unfair, in my opinion.

Reply #3 - Apr 16^th, 2008 at 8:50am I say the seventies. Music peaked in this decade and the Stones were no exception to that claim. Every studio album the band released in the seventies were instant classics IMO.

Reply #7 - Apr 16^th, 2008 at 12:31pm Studio wise definitely the 70's but they performed really well during the Voodoo Lounge and Bridges tours as well. From what I saw in 4 Flicks they were damn good during that tour too.

But I picked the 60's because Brian's influence was so GREAT. And everything was fresh and new and exciting. Lots of variety too! Can't beat those 60's....

1962 - 1966 (called ''the great years'' apparently)
1967 (kinda an anomaly)
1968 - 1973
1974 - 1978
1979 - 1986 (my favourite)
1989
1994 - present

my favourites 1979 - 1986

Ok, this makes sense. Then I would have to vote for '62-'66 and then '68-'73. I've ALWAYS had trouble making up my mind about things... Roll Eyes
