Burdon, Valentine, Price, Steel, and Jenkins are all still alive. As for Burdon, I saw him a few times in recent years and was disappointed. He's turned into a song-stylist, crooner-type, who over-interprets the material, e.g., "Baby" becomes "Bay - bay - be - uh" and so forth. His original strength was his sincerity, timing, crisp delivery, economy of words, and unbelievable howl. Plus a great stage presence - great eyes. Most of that's gone now . . . but he had his day.

I have tickets for a Simon and Garfunkel concert next month. The tour has had good reviews. Has anybody here seen one of the concerts?
