And now Ric Ocasek
 

Front man from the Cars has passed away. 75 years old. Man, so many music greats are passing away it seems. RIP

Oh, dang. Great frontman! :-(

Oh man, it's getting too regular but they are at the age.

RIP

Sad. :(

Man, I remember listening to that first Cars album front to back over and over again, every song was great. Got into a fight because of the second album.:banana:


RIP






W.

Yeah all the artists I grew up with. I saw the cars in concert in high school. Great memories.

One of the first concerts I ever saw.

So many good songs.

RIP.

End of a musical era.

he produced bad brains rock for light.

Paul McCartney is still alive.
Maybe i should start a thread w/ this..

Pretty sure this made it on the "classic album covers" thread. It should've, anyway. At the forefront of a new era of music. "Let's Go" is a stationary bike staple. Farewell...

This and the other thread got me thinking about just how long many of "our" favorite musicians have actually been performing for. At least for me a good number of them are locked in time due to me not seeing many of them live so I tend to watch them on things like YouTube and such. It's only when they pass and I see the ages that I think "WOW I THOUGHT HE WAS ONLY XXX age".

A couple of weeks ago I sent my brother the link to the Classic Album Covers thread. He though it was cool and then sent this article in response:

The coming death of just about every rock legend

Quite the list.

That’s right! He’s got cred for that....

Just read the article. So true.

Great article. Unfortunately very true. And sad.
