First one looks like John Fogerty. Not sure who the one on the right is. ---

From the left: John Fogerty, Carlos Santana, Jim Morrison, and I don’t know who the lady is. ---

John Fogerty of Creedence Clearwater Revival, Carlos Santana of Santana, Jim Morrison of The Doors, and Mariska Veres of Shocking Blue. ---

If that’s Grace Slick, it’s the weirdest picture of her. Looks more like Amy Winehouse, who it isn’t. ---

That’s because it’s neither of those. It’s Mariska Veres. ---

Looks more like Amy Winehouse, who it isn’t. I thought so at first also, but it is indeed **Mariska Veres** of Shocking Blue. I checked the images and also _Venus_ was the second to last song. Thank you all. ---

I arrived to this thread a few minutes late, but I tried one of my favorite tools to detect all of their names (because I only recognized the two middle performers). Here’s some advice you might find useful. If you are using Google Chrome, when the suspect image is on the screen, right-click anywhere and select “search this tab with Google Lens.” Next, use the provided outline box to draw an outline around the desired object. A search result should pop up giving copious information; in this case, it showed each performer’s names and something about each. Some quirks about this useful Chrome function: (1) If you draw you box too large, you may get extra info, whether good or bad. In this case, if I included the titles supplied in the image, it told me what video it was from and then some. (2) Sometimes the desired “Google Lens” option doesn’t show, and a second right-click is necessary. (3) It only works if the image is on a web page. There’s probably a way around this, but I haven’t found it yet. An oddity about this particular image/search…the Lens function didn’t give Fogerty’s name at first, just his band. Redrawing the outline to include _only_ him brought up his name. Besides searching for people’s names, the Lens function can show the name and other info about a product or an abstract drawing, even if the product is not an ad, but part of a sitcom or news set. I haven’t tried any other browser and don’t know if this option is available other than Chrome. ---
