Can you guess who this is? 'Save image as' will tell you.

Bruce Springsteen. I actually could tell before quoting the image.

Trent Reznor from NIN.

The Jimmy Page photo is from a famous TV interview with Huw Wheldon from 1957!



I don't think Wheldon was a skiffle fan.

This was posted on YouTube:

Huw Wheldon: What's your name?
Jimmy Page: James Page.
Huw Wheldon: Do you play anything except skiffle?
Jimmy Page: Oh, just you wait . . .

Can you imagine if he had really followed through with his "biological research" plans?

So easy to tell that is Jimmy. He has one of the more distinguishable faces in rock IMO. So many people think he has some Japanese in him somewhere. He was only 13 in that clip... such a baby!

I am drawing a blank on the others.

Who is this little feller? Again 'Save image as' will tell you.

That's Reginald Dwight!

And NO, I didn't need to do any extra image clicking!

Sir Reginald Dwight of Pinner!

With those teeth it's got to be Freddy Mercury. I mean, seriously is he parodying himself in that pic?

Jen will know this one.

Yeah, I figured that was Rory.

There is a supposed picture of Jimmy with his "first guitar" circulating the net but don't be fooled, it's not him. If anyone can find an authentic childhood pic of Jimmy it would be like Christmas morning for me!

That one does look quite a bit like Page. Must be the 'oriental' celtic features.
