The debt may be cursorily acknowledged by the Rolling Stones themselves,
not by most who listen to them. Of course this may all change with the
mocking of Pat Boone in the Little Richard special (the last thing I saw
before our tv was disconnected again).  As for whether Mick Jagger is a
racist, it'd be interesting to talk to his half black daughter who dated an
artist who was the exboyfriend of my old girlfriend who was cheating on me
with him. That's about as close to fame as I am going to get.
