Wednesday 24 October 2001 From rock'n'roll to rocking chair, Bill Wyman at 65
By Hugh Davies, Entertainment Correspondent (Filed: 24/10/2001)

BILL WYMAN, 65 today, has become the first of Britain's rock 'n' roll pensioners.

The former Rolling Stones bass player says he will celebrate his birthday privately on holiday with his third wife, Suzanne Accosta, and their three children, Katie, seven, Jessica, five, and Matilda, three.

Wyman achieves eligibility for a concessionary bus pass ahead of Tommy Steele, who will be 65 on Dec 17 - 45 years after his UK chart debut with Rock With The Cavemen.

Steele became Britain's "teenage idol", as the New Musical Express noted at the time, without the "violent, hip-swinging and crude exhibitionism" of his arch rival Cliff Richard, who was 61 last week.

Richard's band at the time, the Drifters (later the Shadows) included Bruce Welch, who will be 61 next week, and Hank Marvin, 60 on Sunday.

Wyman is still reasonably well preserved, possibly because his early addiction was to women rather than drugs. He claimed to have slept with 278 women in just two years during the mid-1960s. He also married a 19-year-old when he was 53.

He left the Stones after 31 years, but still tours with his Rhythm Kings, who include Georgie Fame, Gary Brooker of Procul Harum and Albert Lee.

Wyman's former Stones' colleagues are also approaching bus pass age. Mick Jagger is 58, Keith Richards, 57, Ronnie Woods, 54, and Charlie Watts, 60. However, on a global scale, Wyman remains a stripling.

Chuck Berry still duck-walks across the stage at 75 and Fats Domino, soon 74, often sings in New Orleans. At 66, Jerry Lee Lewis pounds the piano at B B King's Club in Memphis and Little Richard, 65, often joins him.
