To John on the Sunset Coast:

Yes, so many of these rock stars now in their late 60's and early 70's are passing away. I don't know about Paul but many were very heavily into drugs and alcohol for a long, long time. I know it must have had a devastating effect on their health. Drugs were so prevalent in these rock stars lives and they had the money to buy all kinds of heavy drugs. Sometimes surprised that Brian Wilson of the Beach Boys & Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones are still around with all the drugs they were into for many years. I know it has effected their health too in later years.
