Not unsuspectedly, in your effort to be the thread police, you have missed the real beauty of this thread
I for one really would only like to see unexpected pairings, I enjoy this thread but not when it's, "Hey! It's two guys or gals that are totally connected"
You mean "the beauty" of completely disregarding the parameters specified by the OP? Because the title of the thread is pretty specific. When I see a photo of two (or more) people who were in the same band at the same time together, I'm not terribly surprised. Whereas a photo of Bolan/E.L.O. or a photo such as I posted on p. 96 (sadly no longer displaying) of Yardbird Jim McCarty & Cactus Jim McCarty is innately surprising. BTW, I would repost the 2 McCartys photo, but can't. I found it at a website I no longer habituate, and would have to rejoin, etc. At least the photo was up long enough for several to appreciate.
