Why so much Aaliyah and so little Left Eye? Jerks.

Think I saw a painting in the Goodwill in downtown Brooklyn that addressed exactly this imbalance.

I can't tell who was in the front saddle for the original painting. Rosey Grier?

Also, and this is unrelated, but the google journey I just went on led me to Huey Newton's chair, currently sitting in an Oakland museum.

This a great picture having all the dead artist with the late Marvin Gayne, Bob Marley, Aaliyah, Jam Master Jay, Tupac Shakur, Christopher "B.I.G." Wallace, and the Lord Jesus Christ himself. Looking at this picture, i just love seeing all of them together having fun in heaven along with Jesus Christ, i wonder if 2Pac invited Jesus over to thugs mansion.

Was dead sure that was going to be a 'maestro in hell' type thing, mocking rap. But, nope.

Tom Johnston is probably best known as the cartoonist for the Sun. just looking at his website and it is quickly apparent that he will put his name to cartoons reflecting any political stance whatsoever in exchange for money

Jimi and Elvis apparently exempted from heaven's strict nametagging scheme.

Would buy poster featuring Lemmy, John Bradbury and Guru Josh.

I would buy a version of the original if they just kind of snuck Billy Joel in there.

Jesus in that painting up there doesn't really look like he's enjoying himself, he looks more like he's waiting for his turn on the decks to show everyone what's what.

When this thread was started there were no rockin' bass players to jam in Heaven's Band.

Now we have John Entwistle, Jack Bruce, Chris Squire, and Lemmy!

I'm SO looking forward to dying!!

Willie thinking he might have left his stash in the bell of the sax

understandably disappointed by the Wendy's burger patty the sax player coughed up instead

Οὖτις, Friday, 8 January 2016 22:30 (ten years ago)

that is a fucking amazing image

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 8 January 2016 22:34 (ten years ago)

I don't even know who the other three people are supposed to be.

the conductor is Harry Potter, right?

Οὖτις, Friday, 8 January 2016 22:36 (ten years ago)

Bowie?

tbh i would not be surprised to learn that there is an actual willie nelson track circa 1987 that more or less sounds like what we're getting here

Doctor Casino, important war pigeon (Doctor Casino), Saturday, 9 January 2016 00:12 (ten years ago)

Definitely Bowie on the right with the chompers

lute bro (brimstead), Saturday, 9 January 2016 01:51 (ten years ago)

sax player is probably grover washington jr?

lute bro (brimstead), Saturday, 9 January 2016 01:56 (ten years ago)

drummer probably carmine appice

lute bro (brimstead), Saturday, 9 January 2016 01:58 (ten years ago)

maybe, who knows? magnavox!

lute bro (brimstead), Saturday, 9 January 2016 01:58 (ten years ago)

Conductor is Steve Shelley

I really hope the title of that image is "Supergroup"

It almost doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility that Willie Nelson would have a collaboration from 1987 with David Bowie and Grover Washington Jr. featuring Carmine Appice on drums and the Boston Pops. Perfect sound forever indeed.

earlnash, Saturday, 9 January 2016 15:18 (ten years ago)

Well fuck, that's eerie.

If somebody can get David Hockney to pose in front of that I'd be eternally grateful.

Who's they guy on 2Pac's left side, and the woman on his right? Is the woman with MJ supposed to be Whitney Houston? And who's the bare-footed dude next to Bob Marley?

Tuomas, Tuesday, 13 September 2016 08:30 (nine years ago)

elvis, janis joplin, beyonce (RIP), err carlos santana? (also RIP)

Rae Kwoniff (NickB), Tuesday, 13 September 2016 08:49 (nine years ago)

woman on the floor looks more like joni Mitchell than Janis to me, although not exactly like either of them?
