He looked every bit of 80. I wonder which rocker is next. A lot of them are getting up there in years. Gary

I saw the Stones at a concert in Providence Rhode Island back in 1964. They were my favorite band from what was called the "British Invasion". Sad to see that he's gone.

I saw this on Facebook. He had a very, very nice collection. He also owned some cars but never drove.
