Rick James, Linda Blair (semi NSFW) Saw it on fb, may be fake, I guess.

They dated for like two or three years.

Rick James began dating Linda Blair in the fall of 1982. In early 1983, she aborted their baby then informed him she had been pregnant after the procedure. James was hurt by her decision. He wrote "Cold Blooded" about Blair. "It was about how Linda could freeze my blood," he wrote in his memoir.

Ah, didn't know. Not so unexpected, I guess.

can’t think of Linda Blair these days without thinking of this:

Not a picture but two people, one fictional, that I saw in a bookshop today

My dad is a big Sherlock Holmes fanatic and has had the opportunity to hang out with Kareem on a couple of occasions as a result.

Who are they?

American singer Joni Mitchell is on the right. Dude looks like a politician.

based on the filename, I'm guessing it's Boulez

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre_Boulez

Thanks! I was familiar with both of those names but didn't know what they look like.

ffs

trolling

Boulez I can understand, but do you really expect us to believe that you don't know what Joni Mitchell looks like?

Oh come, on, logging in as Geir or Tuomas must be easy. All you need is to just try password 'Beatles' or 'Genesis' or 'fuckbuddy' and hey presto, you're in.

Boulez I can understand, but do you really expect us to believe that you don't know what Joni Mitchell looks like?

Why should I? Obviously I know she is a fairly well known musician, but I don't own any of her albums nor have I seen any of her music videos (if she has any?), and I've mostly come across her name in music-related books and ILM discussions where there's no photos to show what she looks like.

(i am mostly with tuomas here, but there was a massive clue in the image url. i also like the quiz aspect, so i'm torn.)

itt: anglophones baffled that a Finn may not have been exposed to the exact same mildly esoteric cultural figures as them.

a Finn who primarily listens to instrumental techno music does not recognise a photo of an old lady who wrote some medium-popular songs forty to fifty years ago

OK, Cap'n Save-a-Tuomas, he does this all the time, it's a shtick, he's not 20 anymore.

Yes, pom, Finns don't know who Pierre Boulez is, they only listen to Sibelius after all.

More like 'Finns don't know what Boulez looks like, they only hang Eero Järnefelt's portrait of Sibelius in their saunas'.

he does this all the time, it's a shtick, he's not 20 anymore.

he’s not more likely to know what she looks like 45 years after she was having hits than he was 25 years after she was having hits, tbf

If glumdal had just said who was in the photo, a helpful policy that has been the subject of some discussion itt over the years iirc, I wouldn’t have made A GIANT EMBARRASSMENT of myself by not knowing Pierre Boulez on sight

I agree that the people in the photos should always be named, I always do it. Tuomas' techno teenager from Tampere routine is just a bit silly now.

(btw I'm assuming the photo of Boulez dancing with a Womble has already been posted itt)

What's a Womble?

blimey what a palaver, i sincerely apologise. genuinely thought no one would have trouble with them

Not dancing tbf.

"i've always had a thing about fred astaire..."

(l) Pierre Boulez, (r) Orinoco Karlheinz Stockhausen.

Ah, I see now. So the Wombles were servants of imperialism.

bloody Wombles, a right set of eco-fascists!

as a kid I thought they were saying they were common

lol

joni mitchell is CANADIAN

xp

Can't believe I didn't catch that. ILX user sic serves imperialism.
