YoungWillz 21,044 Posted December 12, 2016 Anyone have up-to-date info on Kenny Jones? Prostate cancer a couple of years ago, a dabble with 'magic beads' and not much since. Kenney Jones of The Who? On my draft list for 1981. Let's just say he has made longlist for consideration, but no guarantee he'll make the final 20. Afaik still gets check-ups every so often. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 18,439 Posted December 12, 2016 I always thought it grimly ironic that Randall died young and Hopkirk is still around. When Mike Pratt was dying of lung cancer, he wrote to all his friends, imploring them to give up ciggies, and Colin Baker claims that's what made him give them up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charon 4,943 Posted December 14, 2016 Not really one for next year, but don't know where else to put it.. 50 years since 'hey Joe' and 5live just had a very interesting half hour chat with one of the backing singers, a Barbara Moore. Sang on that, won the Eurovision with Puppet on string, married for 3 years to Peter Moore (the Pearl and Dean composer), did arrangement work for John Williams and retired aged forty to a château in France with a mill and half ***does sound a bit doddery*** Well worth a listen on iPlayer or Tunein etc, 3.30-4.00am Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
