Only 56 years ago this Sunday!

Here's Stephen Stills performing Tom Petty's "I Won't Back Down" with his son Chris for TP's 70th birthday bash broadcast last night. Despite some pre-recorded music track and competent guitar playing, with descent lip syncing to his vocal, Stills' age has caught up to him. As a longtime Stephen Stills fan, I enjoyed watching this video just the same.

Fantastic photo of Wilson Pickett from 1966. Check out his guitarist.
