One of the first albums I bought was the great "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" album released by the Beatles way back in 1967. Still to this day I am still rock-n-rollin to their music. . 

One of my favorite album covers in which I like best Includes some famous actresses like Marilyn Monroe and Mae West Some very famous male Actors it also yields Like, Marlon Brando, Huntz Hall and W.C. Fields Stan Laurel, Oliver Hardy, and Bette Davis are also there And so is Johhny Weissmuller, Oscar Wilde and Fred Astaire There's the British Prime Minister- Robert Peel and Hindu Guru- Swami Sri And there's Sonny Liston but there is no Mohammed Ali There's Lenny Bruce and Bob Dylan and others you might know And of course, the famous poet- "Edgar Allen Poe" You'd have to be good to recognize them all But it's easy to find- John, Goerge, Ringo, and Paul

... but no Mohammed Ali - clever and I love the last 2 lines summing it up nice and tight. Great cover to pick as it allowed for such a great list to read. I feel ashamed that I can't picture the album cover, anyone who was a teenager in the early 70s should, especially if they loved the album. I'm going to Google it, and go, Ohhhhhh, yeah. Loved my trip back to a time when those were household names ... CayCay

I used to love music a lot and my wife and I never tired dancing. Now I'm old. I still love those wonderful musicals.

I love this light-hearted look at the past. So many hours spent trying to name them all.
