They were the days' SMS, a time to remember!
I searched the guy out and it was Steve Marriot, from the UK group Small Faces..he always reminded me of Axl Rose, for his looks..and long hair back in the late 60's...I was just reading wikipedia which was quite interesting.

They were good old days'!

I had a broken drum stick of Keith Moons of the Who...I went to see them in a rough old place called Morecambe..the place was full of Teddy boy's, Mods & Rockers...I gave it to my son, when he became a who fanatic! They certainly smashed some gear up at those gigs! I still of loads of plastic records in storage too, from those days! I love my old technics record player, cd's can't come even close, to plastic, I even believe they may even make a come back, eventually! old technology reinvented!
Morecambe was developed back in Victorian times, along with Blackpool, seaside resort for the working class...actually worse today, than back in the 60's...because of the Nuc Power Stations....in the area...sad times now, in these areas, people fish at weekends, for social meetings only, the fish have more common sense, than to swim into Morecambe or Blackpool
The list of singers that have passed on is quite an eye opener, along with the cause of death in many cases, quite a few murdered...

and a few suicides!
