They were in the 90% tax bracket at that time, they should have just worked less.

That's why the Stones and most British entertainment stars became tax exiles.

"During the early 1970s The Rolling Stones became tax exiles. Their experience inspired the title to their famous album Exile on Main St. According to a 2006 article in the Daily Mail, "The Rolling Stones have paid just 1.6 per cent tax on their earnings of £242 million over the past 20 years."
