Need help to identify rock stars on a huge poster
#1
Hello,

I hope this is the right forum for this question.

During my last vacation in US west coast, I've found this poster with most of the 60's to 80's
rock stars.

There are about 170 people I try to find the names. Currently I have found around 50%
of them and I would like to get closer to 100%.

I have added a number for each face, but you need to enlarge/zoom the image to see them.
If you want to see the full size picture, you can grab it here:

This is the list I have so far. If I'm wrong for some names, let me know.

Hi Crazy-Horse,

Thanks for your findings. For 36/37 you are right.
On the other hand I do not think that 50 is Bob Marley as it is already in 163. I must admit that if you do not have the real poster, it may be difficult to identify mainly under the lion's head area.
I have updated the original list.

No other suggestions for the missing ????
