Rock and Roll most wanted

Did a search and did not see a topic about this, as a collector of music graphs, I thought it would be nice to see who is on everyones most wanted list. Do you plan on purchasing or try in person or through the mail? Me, (at least for now) will only purchase if its direct from the artist or though record label pre signings

The past year, I have put a nice dent into my list, the next few months I would like to work on getting the following to help fill in missing pieces in my collection, if anyone has an address or other info that might help, please feel free to share : )

Steve Jones and Paul Cook from the Sex Pistols, Dave Davies from the Kinks, Roger Taylor from Queen, Michael Schenker and Uli Jon Roth from UFO and Scorpions, Joe Jackson, Topper Headon and Paul Simonon from the Clash

There are a lot more but sadly they have either passed or are really hard to get due to being "bad" signers

Jimi Hendrix. He signed quite a bit, but it's still tough to obtain his autograph at a decent price. I can't imagine what the prices would be like if his autograph was as rare as Jim Morrison's autograph.

Bob Dylan is at the top of my list of living music artists.

I have Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Stevie Ray Vaughan and Nirvana in my collection. I would love to have a signed Led Zeppelin IV LP by Jimmy Page, Robert Plant, John Paul Jones and John Bonham. :)

I have a bunch of Michael Schenker. He is a very good signer, but I guess he don't tour the US that often.

Hi Bjarne, first - cool photo with Alice, I got to meet him and his Mom a few years back, very nice people.

I think Michael was in the States early this year but sadly I missed that opportunity. Him and Uli Roth are must haves for my collection. Uli is in England now, I have a friend there that is going to try getting him for me, Michael, I guess I will have to wait and try next year

Roger Taylor from Queen is good signer! I got him twice in 2 days and he was very kind....

I´m collecting just in person autographs, so my Top 5 wishes:
- number one on my "wish list" - Tony Iommi
- The Rolling Stones (basically Mick Jagger / Keith Richards)
- Jimmy Page / Robert Plant
- Paul McCartney
- David Gilmour.

That is a heck of a list. I wish you luck. Where I live, if any of those guys come within 2.5 hours I would be surprised.

I do not think that its realistic to get any of them now (especially when Tony fights with his cancer... :(), but I already know that even greatest wishes can be fulfilled... :)

Because of searching I discovered this old topic - how visionary this comment have been? :) Greatest wishes can be fulfilled - No. 1 accomplished in 2013! :) I´m going to see David Gilmour in Croatia - he is current Number 1! :)

Good Luck Peter in getting David's signature. You will need it.

I will do my best to get David in Germany... Might be tough though!

Otherwise, my list is very similar to Peter's... Except I have met Tony Iommi (twice, 2013 & 2014), Paul McCartney (2013) and Robert Plant (2011)... Also got one on one with Mick Jagger but, unfortunetely, no autograph... For this year my top priorities are David Gilmour, The Rolling Stones (again!), Paul Simon, Art Garfunkel, KISS and AC/DC.
