73 years young today. Maybe not the greatest rock'n'roller, but he sure made some great songs. Here's a few.

That is SO bizarre. I was just googling 'song that mentions Sgt. Pepper' 'cause I had Summer Rain in my head for some. reason but couldn't remember what song it was.

He is still a great performer and has a wonderful sense of humor. He seems
much younger than his actual age.

saw him opening for Bob Dylan in LA in 2009. Good show though nothing too special (much unlike Bob's show)

Bob Dylan said he listened to Rivers' version of POSITIVELY 4th STREET a lot more than his own.

His Album "Realization" that came out in 1968-69 was really good----
also liked his earlier live stuff-- Secret Agent Man " !!

Yes I read he thought the River's version was the best. Bob is rarly
impressed with covers of his own songs.
