Various myths have grown up over the years concerning various members of the band. Brian's death has its fair share but let's not go there again, likewise the Mars bar story and Keith's drug intake.
But, did MJ really bite off the end of his tongue when doing a forward roll during a gym exercise - this was meant to have something to do with his unique singing style!

Did really Charlie hit Mick in the face? Did Keith snort the ashes of his deceased father?

Weaving between Richards and Wood happened on exactly one album: Some Girls. After that it was just the "ancient art of playing twice as loud as the other guy" or "the ancient art of someone covering my guitar parts". In other words, the ancient art of bvllshit.
Sorry about the edits. I'm bad at the ancient art of typing.

And in fairness 71Tele and StonesTod, there were great examples of weaving on 2 tours at least - '78 and '81. They played pretty fluidly off one another during that era.
Back to the topic at hand, the myth of doing an entire classic album in the basement, as if by design, seems to be overhyped.

A lot of that was pretty much broken down on the recent Exile reissue
..... interviews and esp Stones In Exile DVD[/quot
Well I do think a lot of that still comes from Keith. He rarely mentions the professional studio where much of the work was done because he loves riding the myths, and the press loves riding with them too. But you're right, there was more light shined (no pun intended) on the actual recording process maybe then there had ever been.

One of the funniest is the myth of the X-rated scenes of Mick and Marianne in PERFORMANCE winning a porn film prize in Amsterdam. Seemingly no such a tape nor the porn festival does not exist.
