dola

There are obvious ones. I am not too confident with 2, 3 and 8.

or 7.

You got the 4 easy ones. Extra point: What was the actual name of the band at the time in #4?

The New Yardbirds?

Although, Jimmy didn't play Les Pauls til after Zep's first album. This picture was probably post 68

Always have been a little fuzzy on that transition. The photo was taken in late 69 or early 70 for the candy lid was produced in 1970.

[Hurst2112]

2) Grand Funk or Spirit
3) Zombies

That dude in 7 looks a lot like Eric Burdon. No black guys so it can't be War.

then color me right on the bonus.

I don't know about Zep II but Page recorded all of Zep I with a Tele. His Yardbird's gtr was mainly a Tele but he did use a Danelectro from time to time.

[Buccaneer]

You were right originally with Mungo Jerry, probably kind of obvious on that one, you think?

[Hurst2112]

Only because I remember the video for 'Summertime' or whatever it's called.

[Hurst2112]

7) shit, this one is stumping me.

[Karlifornia]

7-Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show? completely wild guess

[Lathum]

They all look like Spinal Tap to me

[Critch]

8)Burton Cummings

Certainly looks like he's Cummings.

[Ksyrup]

My first thought on that one was early 70s Ted Nugent.

[st.cronin]

7) America, maybe?

[Buccaneer]

Hint on #7: look at the back left person.

#3 may be too obscure but they did have a #1 UK hit.

Got number 7!!! And I did it off the hint.

It's a trickey one. Spoiler alert:














































Fleetwood Mac. Mick is the guy on the right. John is the guy standing on the left.
What's bizarre is that I was looking at pictures of Dave Mason, thinking it was him. Turns out, Dave was actually a member of Fleetwood Mac around 94.

[Hurst2112]

Joe Cocker for the last one?

[Julio Riddols]

In a movie about young Mick Jagger, you'd definitely have to have Matthew Lillard play Mick. The resemblance is uncanny.

[Buccaneer]

Good job, Hurst, on #7.

Still looking for #3 and #8.
