any examples of famous musicians who started late?
and by late I mean in their forties? is it even possible to start professional carrier in any field after you turned forty? I many fields there is an age discrimination as i see it. Just curious how much time I have still left to my first Grammy

I think it is possible no doubt.Depending on what line of study. Some being more difficult than others for an older guy. Ability seems to trump age in music although being in good shape in the later years is always an advantage.
You would think that old rock and roll front men would be more prone to the age factor but I still see them around wrinkles and all.You could substitute a pug for a few of those guys and never tell the difference.Doesn't stop em' though. IMO The only thing stopping you is you. It might be more difficult but not impossible and in some cases easier.

Of what though?...  As far as I'm aware she didn't start late, but got a late break.

This could not be more wrong. Bonnie indeed had a resurgence in her forties but she was very famous even in her twenties.

You have attempted to correct Linear Phase on an internet forum. LP has verified your correction using his secret powers of Google Search. He has indeed verified that B. Rait released an album in her 20s, but could not verify fame. You have lost 20 Imperial Credits.

Why did she release Mr. Bum? Was she holding Al Bum hostage? Was she kicking Al out 'cause he was a Bum? What gives here? And why would she become famous just for releasing Al? Was Al a one-time star or something? We needs to know!!!

An album?
myolpal is right, from age 22 to 30 Bonnie released 7 albums. Please remit 20 Imperial Credits back to said Mr. 'Pal and another 10 as "LP is Foolish" restitution.

You've got to learn to read "the whole page" there Linear Phase, ol pal.
Bonnie had the cover of the Rolling Stone in the late seventies and back then that was about as famous as a rock n roller got here in the good ol USofA. She was also very well known to all the players...i.e. Clapton, Harrison, McCartney, Lennon, Richards, etc... in Britan at the time.
Bonnie is the real deal and has been famous since she was in her early twenties. If she isn't now, she will be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and that's not just for her few albums with Don Was.
But just take my imperial credits and buy the house a round. Yor own self included:-)
