Jimi Hendrix and Jeremy Thorpe

Mr Thorpe really going to town on that guitar there.

That Jeremy Thorpe one is classic!

They weren't "adversaries" at the time... but, fuck it, it's just a great photo:

John Cage + Karlheinz Stockhausen

Something funny about that plane.

Who's the guy on the left?

L-R: Hans Fjellestad, Rick Wakeman, Bernie Worrell and Robert Moog.

Fjellestad directed a documentary about Moog in which Wakeman and Worrell performed and conversed with Moog about how much they loved the design of the Minimoog.

It's just too bad Momus wasn't there.

Why has no one posted this picture of Jello Biafria kissing Tammy Faye Bakker:

saville and elvis is the best yet. superb.

Googling reveals that Jimmy Saville hosted Top of the Pops. Why is it strange for him to have posed with Elvis?

Well, Elvis never did Top of the Pops, having only been in the UK once. Is probably not that strange a photo, but Savile himself is v.v.v. strange, so anything involving him at all has insta-weird overtones.

^ yeah

Jello and Tammy Faye ftw!

Was trying to figure out if the other person in the photo with them was also a celebrity: Isabella Rosellini? Freddie Mercury? but came up short.

John Belushi & the Go-Gos

United in their love of cocaine

Yeah, was gonna say, really not all that surprising.

HA!

Robo-Elvis?

L-R Akira Kurosawa, Sydney Pollack, Babs, and John Huston

Moments after this photo was taken, the room exploded b/c of awesomeness (Kurosawa looks like a total bro)

I love that SO much!!

I'm pretty sure this thread exists solely for the purpose of this photo:

Dolly Parton & Keith Haring!!

Sorry, I was wrong.

Stop the presses. We have a winner ladies and gentlemen. THIS makes me happiest of all:

One more and then the photobombing will stop...(god I love this thread!)

Stanley Kubrick & Weegee!!!

this one isn't 'never expected' but it makes me happy and i doubt there was another gathering quite like it:

Well, I wasn't expecting that one.

On this thread, anyway.

Lohan, Brit and Paris all in the same place at the same time and the universe didn't collapse in on itself? That's the equivalent of the Dane Cook, Jeremy Piven, Kid Rock photo upthread.

Anthony Kiedis and Edward Norton, pretty sure this was from ilx somewhere

this thread is worth its weight in gold

and I like to imagine Paul Simon and Lou Reed are arguing about who's more responsible for lame indie rock cliches.

Is Kiedis purposely trying to look like Iggy Pop now?

Kiedis looking very strange there.

Is Kiedis purposely trying to look like Iggy Pop now?

I thought he was always trying to look like Iggy Pop?

Buster Keaton and Sam Beckett - pretty much my favourite of these.

Yeah woah haircut not working for Mr. Kiedis there. eek.

l-r Snoop, Emu, Rod Hull (RIP)

Kubrick & Weegee photo is so awesome!

Kubrick was a New Yorker and worked as photographer in the late 1940s, so it's not that unexpected to see a photo of the two.
