A Son of the Rock

I just heard today of the death of George Clayton Johnston, co-writer of Logan’s Run with William F. Nolan, and scriptwriter for Star Trek and The Twilight Zone.

And yesterday there was Lemmy, whom I see had the same birthday as me though he was older. One of those in the public eye to be known only by a single name his music wasn’t exactly to my taste (Silver Machine in his Hawkwind days – and on which he took the vocal – excepted) but he was one who certainly lived up to the rock’n’roll lifestyle of legend.

George Clayton Johnson: 10/7/1929 – 25/12/2015.

Ian Fraser “Lemmy” Kilmister: 24/12/1945 – 28/12/2015.

So it goes.
