I was reading that Eric Clapton says he's going deaf; the penalty for those years standing in front of a Marshall stack. I'd be surprised if Albert Lee and Keith Richards aren't facing it, too. Joe Walsh has talked about losing his hearing.
Clapton's BBC interview sounded like he thinks he's washed up. He said, “I mean, I’m going deaf, I’ve got tinnitus, my hands just about work,”.
Really a shame that musicians who spent their whole lives living for their music get to be unable to hear it.
well, shit. I was never able to hear their music well until I got hearing aids. I was actually impressed that Keith could sing. I don't recall seeing that before.
That's a fun video.
