All the deaths of these 60s and 70s rockers remind me I’m damn old. When I see their ages I still can imagine them in their prime. Another RIP for a soft rock Brit.

Liverpool is playing like they're in mourning.

The band I was playing with in the mid-late 60s played many of the songs from both those groups. I loved their music. And yeah you are right - sure does!
