Oh yea he did. I’ve seen people age with that kind of abuse…I’ve also seen people reverse it some but yea…what sucks is he was really trying to get off of drinking….the pill he was taking to stop…killed him when he took too many.

another sad case of a world of promise cut short needlessly… almost surprising with rock’s history he didn’t expire at 27.

He was a cute fellow. I noticed in the Steve Martin clip that he had gained quite a bit of weight.

Yea that was near the end…I think that was in 77. The music press would say he looked like Paul McCartney’s younger brother.
