I usually ignore the polls (and most of the articles) in RS. That is a nice cover, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knebby Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 That is a great cover. I also like the side title refering to "Dickheads of the year". That is a great British phrase that North America took a while to get familiar with. In the 80s people over there used to wonder why I thought so many guys were deckhands.

MHD Posted May 28, 2008 Share Posted May 28, 2008 Well, he certainly hasn't got his guitar which is what Ross Halfin stated...and as I said in another post, all the UK July music mags are hitting the stands and Jimmy ain't featured. Wonder why Ross was being so cagey? Not as though it is a big breaking story...just another list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it's great to see Jimmy, Eddie, and B.B. King together. My daughter knows of Omar because she and her friends are fans of his band, Mars Volta. It's what I would call a "progressive" rock group. From what he's heard, my husband likes their sound because he's always be a fan of "progressive" rock and that sort of sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zeptangerine Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Jimmy's sporting a new doo. Who is his hairdresser? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Medhb Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Jimmy's sporting a new doo. Who is his hairdresser? I volunteer for his next photo shoot Looks like he might be growing the length but slicking the sides back a bit.... And is that really Eddie VanHalen?! Holy Crap! I guess I haven't seen pics of him in a while...would have never identified him.... Let's see if I can successfully embed this Mars Volta vid.....OK, guess no embedding here? Here's a YouTube link then... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JovRNx40c6E&hl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moonmaid Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Is that Patty LaBelle with him? I hardly recognized Jimmy without his white/black wardrobe. Nice change! No, it's Mary Wilson of the Supremes. There was an opening of an exhibition in London called "The Story of the Supremes: The Mary Wilson Collection" a couple of weeks ago. I believe it's showing some of the costumes they wore in the sixties. Yeah, I love Jimmy in jeans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knebby Posted May 29, 2008 Share Posted May 29, 2008 Oh my God I've just realised looking at this again that Jimmy looks just like Glenn Hughes here. All teeth and smooth forehead. Gulp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Rover Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 When I see EVH and Jimmy and B.B. together like that.... all I can think of is the VH song titled "Top Jimmy" ..... "He's the King ! !" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ringwraith Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 why is van halen in the front and kirk hammet on the back? hammet is way better. jimmy looks kind of tall, probably standing on a box behind bb king! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think some photos are air brushed but even photos of him that show his age still look GREAT! And we know he didn't stay that way from 'clean' living Jimmy was always known to have a vain side....I have suspected for quite a while that a little cosmetic work has been done here and there. I don't blame him, why not look the best you can? Sure beats the shit out of looking like Robert who looks like someone you might run into in some honkey tonk....Oh, come to think of it...you might!

reids Posted May 30, 2008 Share Posted May 30, 2008 why is van halen in the front and kirk hammet on the back? hammet is way better. jimmy looks kind of tall, probably standing on a box behind bb king! Jimmy's just taller than Eddie and the Mars Volta guitarist. The back cover has Santana, John Mayer, Buddy Guy and Hammet on it. I think they just wanted to balance out the eras (ages) of music. Buddy and BB (earliest of group to current) --- both are seated Jimmy and Carlos (60's to current) --- both behind seated persons in middle Eddie and Kirk (late 70s/80's to current) --- both on left side Mars Volta guy and John Mayer (newest) --- both on right side R Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
