I just edited the pictures. Two men I am left with is he's either Bob Geldof or Waylon Jennings.
This is Waylon Jennings now.

This is Bob Geldoff

What do you think?

its not bob..he would not have been famous enough then.
id bet my cotton socks on it!

It's not Bob Geldof. I'm not convinced that it is Waylon Jennings, but by process of elimination I don't know who else it could be.

OK - this has been driving me crazy, but I think I've figured it out.

Waylon Jennings sang on the recording but does not appear in the video, so this picture can not be him.

Huey Lewis was the only artist on the song whose bandmates (The News) also participated. I believe the photo is Johnny Colla of Huey Lewis and The News.

jjwoodhull,save me from this head wreaker number 14!
ive watched the video a few times and can pick out the people listed,think i have a friggin block with number 14..
he has to be famous..
think think think...

Like I said, I think it's a member of Huey Lewis and the News. I think the reason that he looks so familiar is because of his strong resemblance to Kenny Loggins. Before I watched the video I thought that he WAS Kenny Loggins and that the real picture of Loggins was someone else.

I have to agree that it might be Kenny Loggins too (like no.6) if not someone from The News. The News was on the list of participants. Their shirt is the same and both of them got a black watch. It's just on 2:23, he was still wearing his headpiece, while on 5:58 he took it off.

Thank you guys for helping me out!!

Isn't it annoying to recall something that has to be just ordinary?

Number 14 is Michael McDonald:

Sorry about the above, I am wrong.

It is Kenny Loggins.
