Steve Martin went gray at such a young age, I am not sure if he counts! One big one for me is Jimmy Page. He spent much of the years after Led Zeppelin looking awful with shoe-polished hair. But when he let his hair go gray about ten years back (around the time of the reunion concert), and let his natural age show, he looked fabulous and still does. There is a real taboo about rockers going gray it seems, most surviving 60s rockers have unrealistically dark hair. ---
