Nick Kamen and 501's

Just read that he's died at an all too young 59.

There can't be many more iconic adverts than the Levi one from the 80's.

One of the major elements of our first US holidays was the excitement of being able to buy 501's for what felt like pennies compared to the UK prices.

That's so sad, he also has some hit songs in the 80's.

Awe how sad. I had actually forgotten all about him and the advert until I saw this posted and it brought it all back.

Oh how very sad, I had a poster of him on my wall back in the day. 59 is far too young 😥

Can't hear "I heard it on the grapevine" without seeing that advert in my head. Sad to die so young.

The AD made me buy some 501's, still in my wardrobe even though there is no chance of me ever getting into them again
