Nope. And never were a rock band as such. They were called that, but they played blues/ska fusion.

Listen to the music. They’re primarily a blues band with a drummer. Some ska & Chuck Berry influences.

@StudChud @calhoon2005 Mick Jagger was born born before World War 2 ended. (You can look it up if you like — Jagger was born in 1943. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were nuked in 1945.)
When this song came out, the Rolling Stones were around 40. People were already starting to call them things like aging rockers and dinosaurs: https://youtu.be/SGyOaCXr8Lw?si=f0MmiyRYZ0Jj1ev1
That song came out 40 years ago.
