What was the difference between The Beatles and The Rolling Stones?
The Beatles began life the same way as the Rolling Stones, a few years earlier. They both started as teen R&B cover bands. The Beatles began to write their own songs, and eventually hit it big in 1962 with a Lennon/McCartney song. The Rolling Stones came to popularity the following year. While the Beatles had moved out of the R&B style to a more pop-oriented one, the Rolling Stones were still R&B. The Rolling Stones' second single was a cover of a Lennon/McCartney song, "I Wanna Be Your Man". If you mean strictly in musical style, it would be best to listen to the two different versions, though they are very similar. Overall, the Rolling Stones stayed in the heavier, R&B style, while the Beatles experimented with several. The Rolling Stones were regarded by some (including John Lennon himself) as constantly one step behind the Beatles, though most Rolling Stones fans would protest. The Beatles also had immense tensions in the group, beginning around 1965, until their eventual breakup late in 1969. The Rolling Stones have suffered through similar tension, but have remained together up to this very day.
