75 today

wherever you are:

- working in a chip shop
- doing the karaoke circuit in tokyo
- deep underground, working for the CIA
- on whatever planet the alien abductors took you (back) to

:lol:

say what you like about what he may have turned into in his later "fat sequinned jump-suit vegas elvis" years, no other one person shaped youth culture, rock or pop music like he did.

out of all the artists no longer performing, he is without doubt the one i most wish i could have seen live.

a legend.

with f*cking GREAT hair ;) :lol:
