I tend to agree but I also think Neil's Stones obsession with RT ended up becoming quite destructive from a purely creative standpoint. It wasn't until he formed Howling Hex that he was able to take elements of that Stones fetish into a more interesting direction - maybe by latching onto more wayward tracks like Hey Negrita, rather than the more standard early 70s blueprint. It's still a Stones obsession but at least it was picking up on a more unusual side to them.
