hiya moonglow. :) and thank you for posting her, moodyblue. i, too, have a problem w/photos of myself (i HATE having my photo taken by anyone apart from me).

last year at the leicester festy, photographers from XFM (and/or virtual festivals.co.uk, i think) wanted to take my pic after A3's bassplayer, Segs, wished me a happy biffday from the stage. i'm all NUH-UH! no fuckin' way! (it was 101F and that was only the start of my complaining reasons why not. they told me 'the band' asked them (we were all inn a group hogging the first row, centre, but i turned around like a moron, dripping wet pouring sweat, and wouldn't turn back until they finally split. yes, i know i'm a jerk). :(

[moonglow]

Nobody seems to like their own pic.

Usually just an issue between their ears. ;)

english rock and heavy metal singer..born in 1948 in Skegness, England

Graham Bonnet's musical biography begins back in 1968 when he recorded "Only One Woman" (written by the Bee Gees) with a group called The Marbles. This was the beginning of a long career that has included many solo efforts as well as collaborations with bands such as Forcefield, Impellitteri, Michael Schenker, Ritchie Blackmores Rainbow, Yngwie Malmsteen, Steve Vai, Pretty Maids and Blackthorne...also did standout version of " its all over now baby blue " and a very well known version of " warm ride ".......known for his trademark " aviator " style dark glasses....he looks a lot like the guy in the photo...

GRAHAM BONNET stepped into heavy metal history on a whim. Neither his R&B background nor his conservative image was a comfortable fit in the hard rock community. Yet Graham’s incredible talent catapulted him into the limelight as the voice behind landmark albums with Rainbow, Michael Schenker and Alcatrazz.

In 1979 Graham Bonnet was making headway as a solo artist, having left behind a successful partnership with his cousin in The Marbles a few years prior. At his manager’s insistence, Graham auditioned for Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow. He was hired on the spot. The band recorded ‘Down To Earth’, an album celebrated ever since as one of the greatest hard rock releases ever. Bonnet then moved on to Michael Schenker’s group, where he scored another coup with ‘Assault Attack’ – an LP which many fans rank as Schenker’s best. This association was short-lived, however, and came to an ugly end as Schenker and Bonnet fought onstage at a warm-up show, just prior to a potentially career-making festival appearance. 1983 found Graham forming a new band, using Rainbow and MSG as a template, and enlisting young Swedish guitarist Yngwie Malmsteen. The group recorded one album, and managed one tour, before ego and creative differences broke the band apart. Alcatrazz continued, first with guitarist Steve Vai and later with ex-Derringer guitarist Danny Johnson. When the band fizzled, Bonnet began the first of numerous collaborations with groups like Impellitteri, Forcefield and Blackthorne. While the quality and popularity of the recordings varied, one thing was constant: Graham Bonnet possessed a voice like no other.....
