Cool rock n roll photos

Woke up, 6am, and flipped the lid of my Lenovo so forgive my poor taste. My first thought was that Jack Ruby was going to photobomb. Strange dreams.

On another note, can we have short labels, please? I would never have recognized Chrissie Hynde on the first pic otherwise and "cute blonde with a semi" (she's not the only one) is wracking my befuddled brain.

Interesting story behind this Allman Brothers photo. The reason why they are all laughing is because one member of the band, possibly Duane, ran over to buy some drugs between shots. Made everyone laugh. Everyone had been in a horrid mood in Macon, Georgia....the moment offered much needed comic relief.

Technically, as a photograph, it's not great but I've always found it an iconic moment-capture; backstage is a great place to be.

And doesn't hunting a pic from Google images throw up the weirds? I can get this one - it's a carp joke...

The tag with it said, "Así se ven los Teletubbies al ritmo de Joy Division." or "This is how The Teletubbies look like Joy Division." Well, yes, but...

Well, the guy in the “Jack Ruby” photo is Jerry Lee Lewis and the “blonde” is Tina Weymouth from Talking Heads/Tom Tom Club.

Thanks, I scored 2/2 once the cogs clicked in. Is it me - both the 1st Chrissie and Tina's pics are "is that or isn't that?"

Not admonishing anyone, it's just that some photos are cool but a caption helps the insular, old (and I suppose young) foreigners out.

Comic relief wasn't the only kind they needed, apparently. I been there :p
