Gegenschein Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 ... the "ugliest men" thread. Have to have something to restore the balance and harmony... Bring'em on! Picture posts encouraged. OK, well, besides the obvious... let's remember this is OTHER bands/musicians board, so leave the LZ pretty boys out... Sometimes the entire band could be listed here, such as The Beatles or Queen. I'll leave it to you and instead offer up two somewhat more obscure guys... (oh, and of course this is just MY opinion) The "fifth Beatle" - i.e. one of them, right along with Pete Best and others... Klaus Voormann. The fine-boned, frail, blue-eyed German. You will not find a picture of a "heavier-set" Klaus - he turned 70 this year and is still as thin as he was in his youth. Most famous probably for having designed the cover of the Revolver (Beatles album) The first boy ever to wear the "Beatle" haircut - his girlfriend Astrid committed the act of haircutting... as well as taking some pictures. Yes, OK, some of you will argue that he's not that much of a musician. Right, he's an artist. But he did learn to play bass on a rather short notice, let's give the guy credit. Also played flute and recorder. Lost his girlfriend to Stu Sutcliffe. Later married Christine Hargreaves, of Coronation Street fame who also played Pink's mother in Alan Parker's film The Wall (yes, the Pink Floyd one) I adore this picture of Klaus with the Revolver cover - too bad it was shot at a bad angle. Here's some video evidence. Let's just agree he's a good looking fellow. AND... Mr. Superlungs. (disregard a few razor nicks... he must have been nervous before that Isle of Wight gig). Terry was just obscenely gorgeous. Yes, Jimmy knew exactly what he was shopping for when he was putting together his new band. He wanted BOTH great voice and great looks in the band's singer. He already knew that in Terry he'd have both. But when Terry recommended instead his friend, a fabulous unknown singer, Jimmy wanted to make sure... "What does he look like?" and the famous "Greek God" exchange followed. Some creep on Amazon admitted that in this age of CDs and MP3s he still likes to keep the LP of Terry's 1st album just so he can stare at the "dissolute angel" picture in large format. Some video evidence. (keyboardist Pete Solley in that video is also rather cute ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gegenschein Posted September 15, 2008 Author Share Posted September 15, 2008 Also - here's the photo I promised to scan in the "ugliest" thread - sorry the scan quality sucks, I might have to rescan it later but it gives the general idea of the image. Roger Waters, photo by Claude Gassian. I consider this one of the most beautiful photo portraits ever taken. Seriously, to take a pic of Roger Waters that is actually almost flattering? It's art. Fine art at that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stargroves Tangie Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Well, if I have to come up with someone else besides Jimmy Page as the best looking rocker my choices would be: Jim Morrison Brian May Ron Wood Keith Richards Paul McCartney Michael Hutchence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AMAZONIC Posted September 16, 2008 Share Posted September 16, 2008 David Coverdale hahaha...this brings back memories of the 80's when my bedroom walls were completely covered with posters of these Californian and not rockers... A particular mention to this angel, Robbin Crosby. Back then I thought he was the best looking rocker of that era. Poor Robbin:RIP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bitchin Soul Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Okay girls don't laugh... Jon Bon Jovi is still great looking. Roger Daltrey has a awesome body for 65 years old. (also great blue eyes..... I still find him very sexy) Tim McGraw is not a rocker but has a great body. Keith Urban is very sexy ... a little on the short side. ( I guess compared to Nicole Kidman). These are all great looking guys but Number 2 compared to our Jimmy Page. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one could come close to the elegance, class, charisma and good looks back in his younger days, and no one will ever now in his sixties, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
