Need to ID some 70s superbabe please.
 
So a girl I know posted these photos of an unidentified uber-babe from the 70s.

We're trying to figure out who he is and where he came from (though he looks really familiar to me, I just can't place a name).

Possibly from a glam/glitter band, possibly English.

Please please please pleeeease, who is this beautiful man?

I was thinking Jim Stafford, but no. I know I've seen that man before.

Kinda looks like a young Billy Squire. Google Image Search comes up empty.

When I first saw him, I thought David Essex (I was browsing mobile at the time) but that turned up to be a "no" as well.

Billy's facial structure is entirely different from this guy (mystery babe's features are a little more feminine).

The girl who posted this in the first place speculates that he might be from Kenny, but I don't think that's right either.

Spoiler for a real blast from the past up in here:

djchameleon 11-14-2013 02:29 PM

FUCK, REALLY? Fuck, I knew it would be obvious and I'd feel like a megatard.

Wait, are you sure? I just keep finding photos and videos of a dude who looks similar but his hair is nowhere near as lush as this.

I think his teeth are alright. I like a unique bite.

There you are!!!! :tramp:

ladyislingering 11-14-2013 03:24 PM

I feel like I knew this because I went searching for videos of "Motorcycle Mama" (Sailcat) because I felt like I'd seen his face on a minimal, kitschy sort-of quiet track from the 70s, but came up with nothing and totally forgot about "Jeans On".

Now I'm just trying to find where the image came from, but the more I look, the more he looks completely unmistakable.

WE FOUND HIM

WE FOUND THE BABE



SWEET JESUS

HE'S BEEN IDENTIFIED

energetikk 11-16-2013 06:14 PM

It's just a white box for me? Name please, then?

Yeah you put the whole YT address in. Here's the viewable one...


Interesting /sad to hear a posthumously-accused paedo introducing him :(

ladyislingering 11-16-2013 11:43 PM

Yeah, I heard about that guy. Total creeper!

Anyway Mystery Babe turned out to be a musician known simply as Brendan.

"Gimme Some" only climbed to #14 that year, and he also covered ABBA's "Rock Me", which (while groovy) failed to chart. He's now part of a duo called Simple Country Folk, I guess. I don't care enough to research that, I'm just glad the mystery was put to rest.

so I was right? The busted grill of his indicating that he was British?

ladyislingering 11-17-2013 12:04 PM

Yeah, but it's not just the teeth.

Furthermore the girl who spotted him in the doc lives in England and saw it on cable so I sort of had a hunch there.

Hold on for a minute before you start feeling megatard.
Imo it doesn't look like David Dunas (I don't know about him until now) but anyway I looked up him up on Google image and unless David Dunas had a nose job or something it's probably not him.

ladyislingering 11-17-2013 12:41 PM

Yeah, I really had to look at David for a long time and I knew it wasn't him. We didn't stop looking. I finally posted the pic on (no surprise here) a Sparks fan group I'm part of on Facebook and someone identified him (and posted the video).

I figured someone there would have been able to ID him (loads of these older fans grew up watching ToTP and know their glam/70s pop).
