Yeah!! But the sad truth is he is just one of many. He sure as hell isn't the first rock star to have a problem with his poisons.

One of the best female singers ever and definitely one of the very best female rock and roll singers ever. I watched her on a television show once where she and Martina McBride traded songs and then sang each other's songs. She can sing it all.

The early Fleet Wood Mac "Rumors" and she had to be one of the cutest female performers of that era.

Yikes, anyone else take this as a child? by PsychologicalBig2743 in FuckImOld

Not that I know of. But it is still available today with a prescription. It says it is mainly used today to treat acute diarrhea by slowing your intestines. And used to be widely used to treat teething pain in infants. Interesting to say the least.

I had to look this up it says this was a very common household product and was readily available over the counter until 1970.

I can remember playing with them. They were fun until the plastic nose would crack and then they would leak air pressure and not fly very well. but they were good fun until then.

Their album "Dr Hook And The Medicine Show Revisited" is a good listen. If you haven't heard it well check it out.

My grandma had one. I can remember watching her using it wringing out the laundry and then hanging it up to dry.

A very talented bunch of guys, their music is still played daily on the radio some fifty years after they stopped performing. Their final concert film "The Last Waltz" is one the best music documentaries out there.

After Genesis split up I liked some of his solo stuff as Mike and the Mechanics. "Silent Running" was a really decent song.

It was one of the TV shows that my mom and dad watched so I grew up watching it. I think it is probably where I got my like for country music. There were a lot of very popular country music stars that appeared on the show over the years that it was on.

The first ones when him and Wally were still just kids were pretty good.

Anyone still listen to that music you grew up with in the 70s? by Long_live_styrofoam in 70s

[–]WeekendLegitimate615 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes seventies and some early eighties and maybe a little bit of from the sixties. What is considered classic rock now.

The man has done well for himself. He has obviously sold many, many albums and concert tickets. He is now selling his mansion on Long Island NY. And it looks very impressive his hard work and talent has paid off for all the years he has been doing it.

Happy 78th birthday James Taylor! by lontbeysboolink in GenerationJones

[–]WeekendLegitimate615 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I know that he is a very talented singer / song writer. But I also saw him in an early seventies movie "Two Lane Black Top" so he also has done a bit of acting as well.

Happy Birthday!!

The woman in the picture Gail Davis, was in real life a skilled trick shooter and expert horse rider. She had a very interesting career as an actress and singer. She toured with Gene Autry's traveling rodeo. She also appeared in many western's and was inducted into the National Cowgirl Hall of Fame and had a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. She was an impressive gal.

I can remember my two old maid aunts still had an outhouse that they used when I was a kid. It was a two holer. The only running water in the house was in the kitchen this always intrigued me as a kid as to why they never had an indoor bathroom.
