Cool rock n roll photos

[Michedelic]

I really appreciate all of the pics, but I do wish everyone would include names. Not all TBers are in the same age range and have the same musical tastes.

That's who it looks like to me, too. So how 'bout we identify the folks in the pics from now on?

Aww, where's the fun in that? It's like having to explain a joke. If you don't know who someone is, their probably music wasn't on your radar anyway, and a photo isn't going to change that. A photo doesn't necessarily represent the music. Anyway, the theme of this thread is "cool rock n roll photos", not "guess the band".

It's fairly easy these days for users of streaming services to hear someone's music and not know what they look like. And come on, this isn't really like explaining a joke, is it?

Fact is, we've all been asked to identify the pics if we know who the subjects are, so it's the polite thing to do.

Nirvana with their original drummer Chad Channing and their brief 2nd guitar layer Jason Everman. Fun fact: Jason Everman was fired from nirvana while they were touring for Bleach. He then joined Soundgarden and was subsequently fired. He then joined the US Army Special Forces (Green Beret.)

Not angry. But they didn't kill just hair metal. They killed live music in my area.

I did not know that they were DJ's.

"This is my shot of my great friend, Peter Frampton, in the studio before he was famous, having discovered him as a 14-year-old and using him to play on song demos," recalls Wyman who captured the shot at the Pye Recording Studio in London where Wyman and Frampton's group, Moon's Train, were recording.
