The Rolling Stones were part of the early wave of the British Invasion. They are called the world's greatest rock and roll band. There is no question about it, they are the longest performing -- as in touring over the years -- rock and roll supergroup ever. I never would have predicted that they would outlive the Beatles by so many decades.

The Stones, Dylan, Simon and Garfunkel and Clapton are legendary and a few of the last remaining remnants of the early 1960's.

The Rolling Stones have not had a top hit in 20 years but they have been doing concert tours that sell seats.  I wonder how many people know which of the Stone's songs had the most chart success. This contest one is pretty hard.

Yes, it is time for another Twin-Pick. This is the music trivia contest that tickles your memory gland. If you select the wrong answer, in this case, you will receive the Bronx cheer by nobody less than the Rolling Stones themselves. On the other hand, if and when you get it right, you will be taken to a live performance of that very song by the original artist.

There are no losers here, only those who can try and then try again. If you have an idea or a theme for a stories behind the music or a twin-pick contest that you would like to see, send me an Email or leave the idea in your comments below.
