Canada's Walk of Fame 2014 inductees! Second induction for Robbie Robertson

1. Well, GFW, not too many 60s pioneers died last decade, and Chuck Barry and Little Richard were like the only 50s guys to die. This decade though, for sure, twill be sad times when McCartney passes in a few years (maybe)

2. Isn't it cool that Eric Clapton inducted the Band, so the Band's frontman inducted Eric Clapton a few years later?

Ronnie Hawkins, Rockabilly Legend Who Mentored Rock's Greatest, Dead at 87
His rock group, the Hawks, became The Band when they moved to the U.S. Hawkins famously joined them again onstage in 1978 as captured in Scorsese's 'The Last Waltz'
