37: Rick Nielsen / Cheap Trick

If Rick Nielsen weren’t one of rock and roll’s most colorful and
accomplished characters in real life, there’s no way to have
dreamed him up. A homemade cartoon figure who is also a
down-to-earth family man. A superlative guitarist who makes it
look like a goof onstage. An inveterate joker whose best-known
song is a sincere request for love. You think it’s all an image,
a pose? Spend a few minutes with the man and you’ll find out just
how wrong you are. (From RickNielsen.com)
