Now I'm sure it's no secret that time has not been the kindest to Keith Richards in his 66 years (I mean come on, the man is a ZZ Top style beard away from looking like father time with a guitar). So my question to you all is who are some fellow rockers who are just as old as Keith if not older than Mr. Richards and look younger and/or healthier.


Aside from the English gent in my sig (age 71) I think one person who has held up very well is Little Richard. He doesn't look anywhere near 77, yet at the same time I feel like his youthful look is just a bit too unnatural:

Roger Waters is a year older than Richards and he looks great for his age.

Without knowing their precise ages, I'd say guys like Ringo Starr, John Kay (Steppenwolf), Roger Daltrey and Mike Love of the Beach Boys all seem to be holding up all right.

Jerry Lee Lewis

He's 74 (thought he was older :heheh:) and he's still going strong! :grinthumb

It seems like Jerry Lee's been stuck at 74 for awhile now. :D

I'm pretty sure he's closer to 80 but if he wants to say he's 74 that's fine with me. Jerry Lee isn't the type of person you'd want to get angry.

I thought he was older too but it shows me for using Wikipedia to confirm it! :heheh:
