Amazing Steve Winwood is only 67. Then again, when you make it in music at at the age of 16, I guess that happens.

Cool to see all of them. I know this isn't meant to be a complete list but I would mention Arlo Guthrie is still around at 69 and in top form musically.

 

[67-Fury]

That list Don't say Neil Young or Stephen Stills.

 

[68-300]

What about Donald Fagen and Walter Becker (Steely Dan), still alive and singing

 

[detmatt]

I'm guessing that list could easily be 10 pages and we'd still find talent to add to it.

Love Winwood! Especially when he played in Traffic.

"Walking in the Wind" is one of my favorite songs!!!

They just did or are going to a series of concerts at the Beacon Theatre in NYC. Like 3 days in a row and each concert is going to be a complete album. Aja is one of them. I wish I had the time...I would see all of them.

I always thought it was cool when senior citizens could rock a set on stage... I worked for a mobile DJ in the 80's as a nice part time gig... one of the most memorable nights was a late 30's high school class reunion(50th)... most of those old fellas were WWII vets and the night was all big band and lots of swing music. When those old guys hit the floor... Wow. Years later watching the best of CW dance crowds in action they still couldn't hold a candle to those guys that night.

BTW, for those wondering... The guy I worked for was a Tech by trade.
