I recommend, if you're on Facebook, that you follow Burton Cummings on Facebook. He posts constantly, often about his early days in the music business, posts his favorite old records and songs, reels off a lot of anecdotes, and occasionally pulls out a keyboard and plays a couple of songs live.

His stories and pictures of being raised by a single mom in Winnipeg (his father walked out on them, and his mother and grandmother raised him - his mother worked at Eaton's and played on their curling team) are fantastic. He even posts pictures of himself as little kid, and talks about his first band, the Deverons.
