Richard Nader, whose wildly popular oldies concerts at Madison Square Garden in the 1970s helped jump-start a revival of classic rock ’n’ roll and open up second careers for many former stars, died Dec. 1 in Stony Brook, N.Y. He was 69.
The cause was complications from Parkinson’s disease, said his ex-wife, Deborah Nader.
The Obituary continues at The New York Times.
