Ummmmm. No.

No, that's Zeppelin. Stones, like the Beatles were intros to the best that was on their way, Hendrix, Zeppelin, Floyd, etc.
Motley Crue is garbage. Hot garbage.

I'll stop there. I also didn't include Queen because they're pretty genre bending.
Stones are probably the best of the blues rock driven bands who didn't really evolve way beyond it like Zeppelin, Rush, and Floyd.
I wouldn't even call some of those bands rock'n'roll. Nor would I call what they play music, but that's another argument.
Zepplin had their moment and they stole some good songs, but The Stones have proven that they are the best live band ever. Mick Jagger is a million times better than the high pitched screaming, no charisma Robert Palmer. And Keith Richards and Charlie Watts laying down the groove. Rock'n'roll comes from country and the blues and The Stones know their roots.

I'm hijacking zito's thread here. I don't know how many of you are Weezer fans and among Weezer fans how many have listened to The Teal Album, which is a ten-song collection of almost note-for-note covers of pop songs from the 1960s through the 1990s. It's really a lot of fun. Here's a clip from Weezer (joined by Curt Smith and Roland Orzabal from Tears for Fears) doing "Everybody Wants to Rule the World" live on Kimmel.
