  • Saw this earlier the most important person in rock music (Keef) ain't on it????
  • Shall we run a dead pool?
  • A lot of them are singers rather than musicians.

    :smile:
  • I feel a sweepstake coming on!

    I'll have Iggy, reckon he'd better not start any long play records
  • This is an odd list. Includes Peter Frampton but not Jimmy Page, no Keith Richards or Brian May, Ginger Baker isn't there either. Never mind good to know a lot of my hero's are still with us.
  • Wonder which is the oldest band with all the original members still alive?
  • There should be a weighting based on drug intake?
  • Bloody hell Tom Petty 65 dunno why that one stands out to me amongst that lot.
  • John Fogerty is 70 wow, i thought he was younger. Ever that or i am getting older quicker.

    Wouldn't count on it. If he's not dead by now, there's either something supernatural going on or he's accidentally managed to discover a way to preserve the body before death due to one of the many combinations of drugs he's taken in his lifetime.
  • Mark knopfler is 66 or 67 I think.

    Up until a couple of years ago, it was The Kinks. Probably someone like Slade or Quo.
  • No Meat Loaf?
    No Phil Collins?

    Disgrace.
  • The Trashmen still tour with three of the original four ( the drummer passed away ) which isn't too bad.

    You might laugh at my rockabilly obsession, but The Jets have been going 35 years non stop as the original trio now. They can't be far off the longest?
  • Debbie Harry is 70. Not in my dreams.

    That was scary, though in her pomp she was older than you would have thought
  • One of my heroes Burt Bacharach is well into his nineties now.

    If Barry fucking Manilow is on there Burt must be the king

    Time flies. Didn't realise she was that old.
  • It's not great for my own mental state that all these artists, many who I grew up listening to , are that age and soon many will be gone :(

  • Just did some digging - original line up of The Hollies are still going strong
  • 65 isn't old
  • I can't believe Stevie Wonder is that YOUNG! I know he started when he was 11, but even then

    The Proclaimers
  • I didn't see Cliff Richard on the list. He must be getting on now.

    That's cos the list is made up of musicians ;-)

    OK who can beat Genesis? No one under 64 from the original line up.

    As mentioned earlier both Slade and Status Quo, all original members still alive and all older than 64.
  • Simon&Garfunkel
