One inevitable fact of life is that we all grow older and eventually die.
Some of us manage to do it more gracefully than others, while some of us try their best to prevent it with surgery, cosmetics and medicines.
This collection shows many well known music stars 'then and now', side by side. From their heyday to the present day.
For me the most surprising thing is how well preserved a lot of them are, considering the lifestyles they must have led. I guess it is either a testament to their resilience or the resources at their disposal.
For those of us old enough to remember it is nice to look back at these stars in their prime, so full of youthful exuberance and energy and to also note that the majority are still performing today.
