Who can tell who this is?

Just fer fun:

Formerly world famous, still quite the mover and shaker but behind the scenes:

Cat Stevens? or Youssuf whatever ....?

[and yes I did look at the image properties to try to cheat, well done on the naming

I've racked my brain for a killer clue, but anything I think of is not a clue but a giveaway...but here is one that might be clever:

Platyrrhini

Colin Groves?

NeedKarma · Feb 21, 2007, 06:39 AM

Oh, how about ...

"Hey, hey we're the ...."

Is that close?

* edit: I got it, found a good pic that is like your original. Good hint that last one.

Hand NeedKarma a kewpie doll!!

Here he is from when he was the cats meow.

PS. Despite the corniness of the group that made him famous, he is quite the musical genious, really.

Ok someone tell me why i recognise him ?? ive never heard of the band but i do recognise him was he on tv?????

RickJ · Feb 21, 2007, 07:36 AM

It's Michael Nesmith of the Monkees.

Never heard of the Monkees!?

They had a TV show that still plays on some channels. And he's still big behind the music scenes with many bands.

You know what i was gonna say monkees but i though nah im bound to be wrong then ill look a moron (i know nothing new there) i just have this faded memory guys running about singing....

I wish I had gotten back to this thread earlier today. After the second picture I knew it was him.

Ahhh. I hate to admit it but when I was a kid I had a Monkees lunchbox. I LOVED Mike Nesmith. Also Peter Tork but he hasn't held up that well.

Yes Rick he is a very, very smart guy. I am sure you probably know this bit of trivia but I am going to put it out there anyway. Did any of you know that his mother created "White out"? You know, that liquid paper correction fluid. I am definitely dating myself here. We used it on typewritten letters and stuff like that. Since we have computers now, I am guessing the need has decreased a bit. But, because of his mother, his family is quite wealthy. Anyone know if he is married? Anyone know where I can find him? Do you think he would go for a woman who is age appropriate for him?
