Default exterior stucco

HI -- we have recently bought a 70's stucco house (what's it called with
the
embedded sharp bits of rock or quartz). I'm wondering if it's possible to
plaster
over it (perhaps with lightweight concrete made with vermiculite/perlite,
to keep
the weight down and a bit of insulation), to end up with a plain
adobe-looking
stucco finish. The stucco seems to be in excellent repair, though you can
easily
dislodge some of the rock chips. Any ideas if new stuff would stick OK
simply with
a clean surface? Thanks, Cathy
