He looks like he's aged better than most musicians of that era. Don Felder and Joe Walsh look like they're doing okay, too.

Not to mention Randy Meisner.

Not to mention Randy Meisner.

I always liked Randy - he seemed to be a quiet guy that just enjoyed playing music. I believe he’s had a rough time the last few years since the death of his wife.

Especially if it didn't happen accidentally as we are told. But his rough times go way back before then.

We've lost a great one, and I don't say that lightly. Tres Hombres forever.

Worst news all year! I have seen them many times. My wife and I go to the Venetian to see them each year. Everything good seems to be leaving!

Do raccoon hats qualify?

One of The meanest and greasiest pickers to ever spank the plank, Steve "Fergy" Ferguson. Both he and keyboardist Terry Adams were from Louisville, Ky where they were members of the Mersey Beats USA. They left to form the inimitable, legendary and most rocking NRBQ.

This tune's from the 1970 Columbia LP Boppin' The Blues where the Q backed Carl Perkins. Fergy singing too.
