Yeah man I dont know how old those guys are and I was too lazy to look it up to be honest. Some of the guys that I posted were before you 'updated' your post.
I know that those guys have been at it longer than I've been alive.

This topic was changed from musicians who make out with each other to musicians who are old and still great.

There are quite a few on that list who are great. And there others who made a mark, but aren't as great ..

LOL

That's some good stuff there, Frank!

I am sure there are a few more that qualify.
I did not attach greatness as a requirement for qualification since that is very subjective.

However 60 and older and still playing music either by recording or touring is the qualifying requirements.
