80 years old - Paul McCartney & Brian Wilson


Sir Paul M. Just turned 80 and Brian W. Will turn 80 tomorrow.   I guess it reflects us getting old too.   I just watched a special on Brian W. - American Masters.   Rubber Soul and Pet Sounds and obviously much more.   Been listening to a little of both this weekend.   Happy Fathers day by the way!!!

I found myself standing behind him in the Tower Records on Ventura Blvd. in Sherman Oaks one afternoon,

 

I miss that place and those times.

All the best,

Likewise @nonoise. Though after the Amoeba store on Sunset Blvd. in Hollywood opened, Tower seemed kinda lame. Except for the Classical department in all the Towers (the Tower on Sunset.had a separate Classical annex), the best Classical inventory I've ever seen, better than Amoeba's.

Caught the Who at the Santa Barbara Bowl a few years ago. They are in their 70's. Still great. Townsend doesn't leap around anymore but he did one hop at the end just to show he's still got it. Starkey is a credible replacement for Moon.

Santana still going strong. As long as he hydrates. 

Van the Man. Ian Anderson. Lonnie Jordan. The Geezers keep rolling on and an inspiration to us all.

Jerry Lee Lewis has somehow managed to make it to 87 (so far), and can still out-drink Keith Richards.
