Actually, it's the other two dudes. I mean, it's named after them, they've been on ALL the albums...

Let's see, prior to 1975, Mick had been in a band with Rod Stewart, John in a band with Eric Clapton, and Christine voted best female vocalist in England. Perhaps THE biggest rock promoter in history (Bill Graham) intervened on their behalf with Warner Bros. Records. Yeah, they were total hacks with no industry contacts that weren't going anywhere, even though their music was getting radio airplay and they were playing on television. No, it was the all the pot-head Brian Wilson wannabe and the waitress at Big Boy.
