Rock N Roll Birthdays

Jim Morrison would have been 72 today.

Jim as a young 'un:

Happy birthday Jim!

One of the greats who left us too soon. His wanted poster hangs behind my bedroom door. (Part of a gift from a friend)

ETA: today is also Phil Collen's 58th birthday. (Guitarist Def Leppard). Happy birthday to Phil!

Phil Collen looks dang good for someone pushing 60; he's very fit. I didn't realize he shared a birthday with the Lizard King.

Yeah, he's in to martial arts and kickboxing and eats an almost strictly vegan diet, and it shows! The whole Def Leppard band looks pretty good for guys in their early-late 50s. I didn't realize that either until you posted about Jim's, and then I saw today's date.

I can't believe that I forgot about this birthday until now.

Happy belated 66th birthday to Paul Rodgers

I thought AG would have beaten me to birthday wishes for Stephen Stills. Felder was first.

If you had waited another 5 minutes or so, I would've, NMB. .

Happy 71th birthday to Stephen Stills




One of my favorite musicians. I love almost everything he's done. His music has been with me since I was a baby. Stephen!

Happy 70th birthday to John Paul Jones bassist of Led Zeppelin!

Ooh that's lovely. I forgot JPJ's birthday is so close to Jimmy's. Lord Page turns 72 on the 9th. Long may they both rock!

Turns out a lot of rock stars are Capricorns, apparently. Today is a blockbuster day of heavy hitters: David Bowie, Robby Krieger and Elvis Presley (in heaven).
