Old Rock Stars

[OB1]

One vocalist that just gets better with age, Percy Plant.

Well, he is simply the greatest rock vocalist as far as I am concerned.

Lionel is as much a 'Rock Star' as Lee Bradbury was a world class striker mate .... ;-)

Lionel shares a name with arguably the world's best player. And Lee Bradbury shares a name with David Lee Roth. So, I was sort of right.

 

[Bewar3them00n]

Iggy Pop.
70, just done an album and tour with Queens of the Stone Age, still doing it, still relevant, a living Legend.

 

[Bill Walker]

I think Roger Waters mimes some of his stuff nowadays. He was never a great singer and it was a croak 15 years ago so.....

I think he's been miming a while now

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Wonder what Marc Bolan would be like today if he had not met an untimely early death, his family must still be making millions with all his tunes used in adverts on TV

His family received fuck all - it was all secretly stashed away in the Cayman islands and no one knew who was controlling the millions... his son was denied anything for a few decades as he was illegitimate - until the law changed and he finally received some cash. Here is a documentary asking where the millions went

He is, without doubt. He is also a very fine singer. I'm sure that you have listened to his collaboration with Alison Kraus. I was fortunate enough to see them live in Paris and his voice was just amazing with hers.

That album he did with Alison Krauss is outstanding.

Cheers, the things you learn on here is fascinating, thought it was just a straight forward inheritence

Every time i hear Rod Stewart i just automatically think of Kenny Everett and his expanding blow up arse in tight leopard skin pants, i can't take the bloke serious after seeing that

 

[MCFCTrick]

Where the Trick good this time? How's the latest album?

I wanted to go but already spent far too much on gigs this year.

One of the best sets I have seen them do in a long time. Very varied and a good few that I haven't heard them do before live. Next night in Bristol was a different set yet again .... Had a great chat with RZ before the gig .... mostly about dogs, lol.

New album .... Like last year's, first two songs don't do it for me. But then it gets much better. Floating Down is an instant CT classic ... almost Cocteau Twins guitar sound! Like A Fly also .... should have been the opening track.
