John Williams is amazing, truly the Beethoven or Mozart of our time.  He's my favorite contemporary composer, along with Ennio Morricone.

I too am a big fan plus the Danish National Symphony does an excellent job as well

I really just don't like the Rolling Stones.  It's an unpopular opinion to be sure, and I understand that.  It's just personal preference, and my reaction to most of their music involves intense visceral dislike.

HOWEVER

There are two of their songs that I do really like.

I'm not a huge fan of the rainbow song but, Paint it black is a great one (Blues) and one of the early songs that sparked my fandom.

"can't always git" is a solid classic

I really, really hate "Can't Always Get."  A lot of it is because I dislike Mick Jagger's voice, the weird way he modulates his sounds and sort of chews his mouth and then spits out words.  Those annoying effects are minimized on Rainbow and Paint It Black.  But they are maximized on songs like Can't Always Get, and Just Waiting on a Friend.

I seriously can't stand listening to him sing those songs, and most others. I change the radio station every single time.

Edit:  As for the music itself, it tends toward really generic blues and rock progressions, nothing special at all IMO.  Paint It Black is an exception because it's a really haunting melody.

I agree.
Blues doesn't need to be complex or fancy.

"I Feel For You" by Chaka Khan Originally appeared on Prince's 1979 self-titled album and made famous five years later. Prince won a Grammy for Best R&B Song for her cover.
