Are you old enough to remember....

Hey, Dio wouldn't be a bad guess!
Kind of does look like him.
But the 3rd guy is Tony Defries.

He was Bowies crook of a manager, then started "Mainman", which was an "Artist management group".
Basically, he signed artists, paid them a weekly stipend, housed and fed them and paid all their expenses.
BUT, he also collected 100% of all the concert and album revenues.

It took until 1980 or so for Bowie to get out of the contract, and until that point he was literally penniless, even though he was one of the top selling recording artists.
This picture was taken the night that Lou Reed met with Bowie and Defries about joining Mainman.
It is said that this was the point where Reed declined, then advised Bowie that he was being robbed blind by Defries.

You can see the "stern" look on Reeds face, and the stunned disappointment on Bowies.

Of course, Iggy is just blasted as always!

Meaningless late night trivia!:thumbup:

I was pretty sure that was Lou Reed but didn't know that was Tony Defries

That drummer for CTA was Danny Seraphine. An excellent drummer. His licks are still being played today. Tris Imboden, a local OC musician, is the current drummer with Chicago. Tris was battling some health problems. Hope he's doing ok. He was the drummer in "Honk", a local OC group who played for quite a while at the Golden Bear in HB many years ago. Tris is a good guy and another excellent drummer.
