Rock Stars 1965-75

Good morning, y'all. Did you have a nice weekend?

The fine folks at ChopShop have a new t shirt following on from their previous robots and cars ones (which we nailed pretty well within 48 hours). Let's see if we can get all these in a similar time frame. Larger, numbered version after the jump, answers in comments.

You know, for all the publicity we give these guys, it's about time they sent us some free T shirts, don't you think?

said johnnycrosslin on September 15, 2008 10:53 AM.

Supposed to be rock stars from 65-75, folks.

Glad I'm not old enough to remember all these.

said Baierman on September 15, 2008 10:56 AM.

Could #15 be George Harrison?

And # 24 might be Jeff Beck, but his main guitar is a Strat, not a Tele.

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 10:56 AM.

Baier--that's why I realized Madonna would be a lousy guess for #8 even though it looked like her Like a Virgin writhing....
but I'm clueless to most of them--would honestly be hard even with their actual pictures up...

said sarcastic one on September 15, 2008 11:00 AM.

So, to recap what we have so far:
1 - Roger Daughtry
2 - Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull
3 - Pete Townsend
4 - Mick Jagger
5 - Jimi Hendrix
6 - The Edge (I don't think it's SRV - he wasn't a start by '75)
7 -
8 - Janis Joplin
9 - Ravi Shankar
10 - Robert Plant
11 - Bob Dylan
12 - Freddie Mercury
13 - Neil Young
14 - Angus Young
15 - George Harrison
16 -
17 - Paul McCartney
18 - Eric Clapton
19 - Jimmy Page
20 - John Lennon
21 - David Bowie
22 -
23 - James Taylor
24 - Jeff Beck
25 - Jerry Garcia
26 -
27 - Can't be Slash, too young.
28 - Stevie Nicks

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 11:13 AM.

Oh, and never mind about The Edge for #6 - he wasn't a star by '75 either.

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 11:25 AM.

70's music sucked, except for AC/DC.
I don't know any of them except Angus Young and number 6.
I think that's Esteban.
I saw his ass on an infomercial.
He rocks hard like everyone else on the T-Shirt.

Mouch, if they arent going to give some T's to hand out we could always make fun of them..

said Dave on September 15, 2008 11:35 AM.

yeah and even acdc suck, :P
i think i saw the same infomercial, dunno why, havent watched teh tube in a long time, chose to watch estoban... go figure

said notjohndoe2 on September 15, 2008 11:47 AM.

i don’t have a bunch of time for full review right now… but Harrison, not ravi shankar.

no slash… too young.

no jeff beck here, no taylor, no jeff lynne on this one either.

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 11:51 AM.

BTW, not to deny the power of American Idol, but it's Roger Daltrey, not Daughtrey. Sigh

said Scaramouch on September 15, 2008 11:59 AM.

Daltry, Daughtry, Dally Lamma, Dolly Parton, Dale Earnheart, Who gives a shit.
It's seventy's music, about as entertaining as European Football.

That's right I said it and I'm not taking it back.

said Dave on September 15, 2008 12:05 PM.

only half this is seventies… and beside that… stevie wonder is from the 70's. the next tee specifically highlights the 70’s actually.

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 12:08 PM.

Chopshop, please forgive Dave...he was raised by wolves.

No, really!

said sarcastic one on September 15, 2008 12:27 PM.

#6 - Steve Winwood? Dave Mason? - Traffic has to be in there somewhere.
#26 - Tom Petty

No one named Robin Trower - but he's got to be in there also. . .

said gwdmaine on September 15, 2008 12:36 PM.

Could #6 be Duane Allman, then?

And maybe # 24 is Keith Richards?

And I hate American Idol, I can't believe I typed "Daughtry"!

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 12:43 PM.

#16 might be Roy Orbison

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 12:48 PM.

no winwood, mason, petty or orbison. petty is on the next one and orbison is more from 55-65… which is another potential design really.

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 1:37 PM.

Thanks to some clarifications, here's the list as it now stands:

1 - Roger Daltry
2 - Ian Anderson from Jethro Tull
3 - Pete Townsend
4 - Mick Jagger
5 - Jimi Hendrix
6 - Duane Allman
7 -
8 - Janis Joplin
9 - George Harrison
10 - Robert Plant
11 - Bob Dylan
12 - Freddie Mercury
13 - Neil Young
14 - Angus Young
15 -

17 - Paul McCartney
18 - Eric Clapton
19 - Jimmy Page
20 - John Lennon
21 - David Bowie
22 -
23 -
24 - Keith Richards
25 - Jerry Garcia
26 -
27 -
28 - Stevie Nicks

Any more guesses on the missing ones?

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 2:27 PM.

Seeing as Bluesfella only seems to comment on ChopShop competitions (ahh, that new profile button makes sleuthing so much easier), I'd be apt to believe every guess he makes *grin*

Dude, stick around, we have so much more to offer.

said Scaramouch on September 15, 2008 2:43 PM.

could 7 be one of those Van Sant guys?

said johnny on September 15, 2008 2:49 PM.

Don't worry, Scaramouch, I'm in no way related to the shirt store. And I read just about every article on this site, but I'm more of a lurker. I just can't help myself when it comes to these contests, though!

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 2:55 PM.

he'r right… i am me and he is he.

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 3:07 PM.

no van zant guys at all actually. so 7 would be silly.

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 3:08 PM.

Haha, then my apologies Bluesfella. It's Johnny, he has me believing everything is a conspiracy ;)

said Scaramouch on September 15, 2008 3:13 PM.

No problem.

By the way, is # 15 drinking tea? It's hard to tell with that image, any chance of getting a higher resolution pic?

said Bluesfella on September 15, 2008 4:40 PM.

2. Ian Anderson
3. Pete Townshend

said Royal Cyclops on September 15, 2008 4:48 PM.

15 is drinking tea.

no jbruce, shankar, donovan, steve miller or buckingham.

but, someone said earlier that 9 was george harrison… and it is.

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 4:50 PM.

25. Rory Galliger

Where's Santana?

said Royal Cyclops on September 15, 2008 4:57 PM.

I think it's safe to say that #9 is George. But those that thought it was Ravi Shankar should be commended for their musical knowledge.

Other than that, I think Cyclops' last update is correct. Donovan is a little iffy, but I can't think of who else it would be. I'm really annoyed that Ian Anderson was on there. Gimme a break.

said Johnny Wright on September 15, 2008 5:01 PM.

15. Ray Davies?

said Royal Cyclops on September 15, 2008 5:15 PM.

no gallagher or santana.

more people have commended us on the inclusion of ian… besides, everyone else has a mic or a guitar.

15. word up… ray davies baby!

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 5:32 PM.

7. John Fogerty?
25. Alvin Lee?
26. Marc Bolen?

said Royal Cyclops on September 15, 2008 5:40 PM.

no fogerty or lee… but…

said chopshop on September 15, 2008 7:53 PM.

23. A "Rock Star" with short or no hair, on a stool playing an acoustic guitar; the "Rock" part is baffling.

Otherwise, I'd say:

Jim Croce?
John Sebastian?
Richie Havens?
Paul Simon?

25. A Big Thick Bodied Guy playing a Big Hollow Bodied Gibson . . .

Steven Stills?

said Royal Cyclops on September 15, 2008 10:23 PM.

Either #26 or #27 is definitely Marc Bolan (T. Rex). Not sure which one though.

said DJ Maniak on September 15, 2008 11:53 PM.

no croce, sabastian, havens… or stills.

i think only #25 is still out there. AND he is ALWAYS the last. famous guy, huge influence on musicians, but just not a famous face (or body).

HINT: irishman

said chopshop on September 16, 2008 8:53 AM.

So, #25 is NOT Jerry Garcia, then?

said Bluesfella on September 16, 2008 9:33 AM.

no way. someone else mentioned him already.

said chopshop on September 16, 2008 9:46 AM.

Phil Lynott?

said Ack on September 16, 2008 10:26 AM.

who?

its a marvelous night for another hint.

said chopshop on September 16, 2008 11:00 AM.

Phil was the leader of Thin Lizzy

And thanks to the easy hint - Van Morrison


said Ack on September 16, 2008 11:29 AM.

is that it?

said chopshop on September 16, 2008 11:38 AM.

Phil was the leader of Thin Lizzy

And thanks to the easy hint - Van Morrison


said Ack on September 16, 2008 11:53 AM.

16 is Lou Reed, check the glasses and profile
22 is either Joe Cocker or Jim Morrison
9 is Ravi
could 7 be Springsteen? Always telling stories at the mic
23 is too vague, James Taylor would probably have had longer hair, Paul Simon's not really a rock star.
27 is a complete mystery to me
26 probably not Tom Petty, Marc Bolin perhaps

said Royal Cyclops on September 16, 2008 4:17 PM.

Doh! #7… i forgot nobody got that. no springsteen. not on this one.

said chopshop on September 16, 2008 10:45 PM.

#7 is playing a bass. I have no other idea on that one, though.

said Bluesfella on September 17, 2008 11:12 AM.

Can't tell if 7's playing a bass or not, but I never saw a yeah or nay on Robin Trower, so that's my guess.

said gwdmaine on September 17, 2008 12:44 PM.

like #25, legendary band member… not famous in face. most people would walk by him in the street even if they had a bunch of their albums.

said chopshop on September 17, 2008 12:53 PM.

7. Joe Walsh?

said Royal Cyclops on September 17, 2008 2:06 PM.

no. he’s a bit famous looking don’t you think? besides, he’d be more 72-82 which is the next design.

said chopshop on September 17, 2008 2:11 PM.

Is #7 Rick Danko from The Band by chance?

said phatlard on September 17, 2008 4:13 PM.

its one of the Way Outs from that Flintstones episode.

said chopshop on September 17, 2008 4:38 PM.

just kidding

said chopshop on September 17, 2008 4:41 PM.

hello… is there anybody in here? just nod if you can hear me.

is there anyone at all?

said chopshop on September 17, 2008 11:21 PM.

I'm still here...I'm just stumped.

Is #7 the only one we are still missing?

said Bluesfella on September 18, 2008 9:37 AM.

even after that MASSIVE hint?

said chopshop on September 18, 2008 10:26 AM.

Oh oh oh... is that a Pink Floyd reference chopy?

Honestly, i'm drawing a blank. Something is telling me i know this but i can't put my elbow on it.


Damn you and your hints, DAMN you. You can just come and rock me to sleep tonight.

said phatlard on September 18, 2008 6:51 PM.

phatlard sounds just like a good friend of mine in SF. he would have said the same thing. do i know you?

said chopshop on September 18, 2008 7:02 PM.

7. Roger Waters

I thought of him two days ago but discounted it because of the short hair on the image.

said Royal Cyclops on September 18, 2008 7:53 PM.

I have a good friend who has a good friend in SF.. weird

Honestly though, how well do any of us really know one another?


Roger wasn't the one i was thinking of by the way but is he right?

said phatlard on September 19, 2008 11:42 AM.

Roger Waters fits for #7

With a couple of corrections on spelling errors, it should be complete?

1. Roger Daltrey
26. Marc Bolan

said Meri on September 21, 2008 3:50 PM.

it

is

complete

said mark grodzki on September 21, 2008 7:59 PM.
