December 12

  

 

 

 

 

And now the end is near

And so I face the final curtain,

I’ll state my case of which I’m certain.

I’ve lived a life that’s full, I traveled each and ev’ry highway,

And more, much more than this. I did it my way. 

Francis Albert Sinatra
(December 12, 1915 – May 14, 1998)







Although critical of rock & roll in the early days, Frank Sinatra certainly embodies its spirit.

 
Is this rock & roll?


MICK JAGGER (pictured with his father) was knighted by Prince Charles at Buckingham Palace 10 December 2003. 

The always eloquent KEITH RICHARDS: "I told Mick it's a paltry honour ... It's not what the Stones is about, is it?"





In other Stones news, MICK TAYLOR left the band 12/12/1974 and will rejoin them later this week.
