of course none of these self-absorbed cocktappers care to listen or comment.

I thought it was cool.
Id personally be too busy banging hookers when im in my 90's to record a song, but thats cool.

I guess what makes it special, is for him to be 96 and able to put a coherent thought together enough to do that. Most people that age are just watching andy griffith reruns and crapping in their pants at that point.

I hope he makes a death metal album. Id buy that.

well thank you for at least commenting on it, Keith.

He could always collaborate with Christopher Lee on a metal album, that would be interesting.

I thought it was very interesting and a touching story about people doing some good things together. I shared the link with others.
