> The Stones made a lot more money than he ever did without adding anything musically
At the risk of sounding rude, that is a load of bollocks, Dog. If you can't tell the difference between a Chuck Berry record and a Rolling Stones record I suggest you ask Santa to bring you a new pair of ears for xmas.
They may have influences, but ultimately they sound (for better or worse) like The Stones. And they have done since at least 1965. Not Chuck Berry, not Bo Diddley, but the Rolling Stones.
They did sound like T.Rex on It's Only Rock'n'roll though, but that's another argument for another day ; )
