Rock N Roll Heaven Picture

[Bill]

I saw the artist post this in a Jimmy Buffett fan group I’m in on Facebook, as he had just added Jimmy. But I thought it was really cool and inventive, based on the old “Nighthawks” diner painting from the 1940s.

I like the Rat Pack bellied up to the bar and Bowie next to Bing, like Thr Little Drummer Boy performance, ha.

Also John Lennon and George Harrison playing on the rooftop.

Anyone you notice here?

That’s very cool. You could notice something new every time you looked at it.
I like the song references too “Try Peggy Sue’s Blueberry pie” 3 songs in phrase. very clever (although Try may be a bit too contemporary 🤨)

Using the Zoom helps spot more detail, like the song references andTina Turner with Joe Cocker up in the left hand corner.

Very cool picture! I have a t-shirt with 50 or so rock musicians on it.

That’s cool. I can’t find SRV in the picture🤔. Can anyone see him?

More Blues!

[Jean-Michel G]

I’m not sure… Maybe the guy with the hat in the middle of the rooftop?

[Denise]

Yes it’s him, with the letters SRV on his guitar, which doesn’t look like a Strat though.

More Blues!

[Bill]

Definitely him on the roof next to George Harrison in the fuzzy coat.

[Andy N]

Or maybe bottom left behind Jerry Garcia? Not entirely convinced though, a bit too blonde!

[John H]

That is really neat Bill. Thanks for sharing.

Jim Morrisson doesn’t seem to be much interested in Amy 😃.

Tom Petty😥.

More Blues!

[Jean-Michel G]

…but David Crosby seems very much interested in Janis Joplin! 😉

[San Luis Rey]

I was going to start naming some folks when I realized that scrolling down there is a list of musicians and references. Pretty cool lithograph Bill!
