and also, their loyal fans will always purchase their albums the week of release albeit the Rolling Stones, Cohen, Bowie, McCartney, Elton, Rod Stewart, Dylan etc......
thus the high debut positions, then usually out of the top10/20 the following week...

they bore me also,
I think they were a pretty good singles band back in the day but to me, all of their albums had plenty of filler, the exceptions for me were "tattoo you" and "emotional rescue".
I also don't think they were that great as musicians or Jagger as a vocalist neither...
they were one of those bands that relied on one sound for their whole career and must have rehashed the riff to "satisfaction" a hundred times during the last 50 years.
its also interesting to note, that while the Beatles were around they called themselves "the second best band in the world" but after the Beatle split in 1970 they started calling themselves "the greatest band in the world" and people believed it...
much like KISS at the opening of their concert before they step out on stage..."you wanted the best, you got the best, the hottest band in the world......KISS!!!!"
my dad saw Rolling Stones back in 1962 prior to them releasing a record, he said Jagger was hopeless live, saw them again in the late 1970s and still said he was useless live.
