The Stones. I'm sorry, even though Hendrix has better skills with his axe, The Rolling Stones have simply made more songs and I find them to be quite catchy. In fact, many a day, you shall find me walking around my house singing "Jumpin' Jack Flash so you don't pass gas..."

Hendrix is just moodier, and it touches me. He wasn't at all the best player for technicality and skill, but god was he a showman.

The tie-breaker for me is the fact that among Devo's deconstructive covers of these two, "(Can't get no) Satisfaction" (the Stones) is much more enjoyable than the also good "Are You Experienced?" (Hendrix).

Stones win via Devo.

Jimi Hendrix gets my vote. The Stones have made some good stuff, but almost everything Hendrix did was awesome.

Tough one, but I vote Hendrix. You've got to give him credit for his roots in early heavy metal.

Hendrix... Really, haven't heard that much songs from him (yes, shame on me) but what I heard was extremly good.

I vote Hendrix. I think he was much more about the music than The Rolling Stones, and I think the fact that the Stones still try to tour at age 70 or something shows that.

The Rolling Stones, I just like their music and the style more. Thought Jimi Hendrix isn't that bad either...

Sad thing about the drugs, though... This was indeed a hard choice...

But I voted for Jimmy because because I want to honour him and his family.

I'm pretty sure if Hendrix was still alive, he would still be playing concerts also.



My vote goes to the stones.

I'd vote for the Stones to honour Keith Richards and is family, simply for the fact that he is a zombie that moves based on involuntary muscle spasms caused by the nerve deteration of his over use of cocaine.
