Hauer had a great run in the early/mid 80's with three all-time classic bad guy roles.

Nighthawks
Blade Runner
The Hitcher

His career sort of took a different direction after that - guess he didn't want to be type cast.

**** Ginger Baker thought death would stay well away from that arsehole. 80 is a good innings for a raging junkie and all around prize winning prick.

The singer is a gawd on the guitar. To be able to play that song and sing while playing is impressive.

Hard to think he lived 5 more years.

Hard to believe that Eric Clapton never broke out and had a career after his Cream days. . .

Well, call me ignorant and slap me, Sally.

Oof.
