Eric Clapton’s family waited patiently for their wayward son to come back home to the house band. They could never understand why he preferred rock n’ roll to the more gentile acoustic polkas on which he grew his musical chops.

Due to the economic downturn, the Wilson family had to make extra money as harp guitars at weddings and bar mitzvahs.

After they won the talent show at the Coop Party,
the new East Side garage band “The Sirens of Governor’s Island with Fluffy the Wonder Dog” seemed poised for a run at the pop charts, but that was before they posed for their publicity photo and Fluffy
was nowhere to be found.

We always knew it would come to this: Keith Richards as the last surviving member of the Stones and forced to employ his family members due to the demise of his original bandmates.

The knutsen family spends half their time tuning their instrument and the other half playing out of tune.

There’s nothing I like better than the sound of the Knutsen Family Quartet, unless of course it’s the sound of a chicken caught in a vacuum cleaner.

Kned Knutsen pictured here with wife Knancy and daughters Knelly and Knina in the fatally failed “Kneedful Knutsens and the dueling Harp-Guitars Band”. Sadly, the whole band spontaneously combusted after a prolonged Kned induced “shag wool foot stomp”. Sparks flew from the vigorous heel action and every family members clothes caught fire. The band had planned to play their up beat version of “Ode to Joy” in 8/4 time. Wife Knancy was seen purchasing the new band outfits at the local five and dime. When asked what she had thought of the new material called “polyester” she just said, “knifty”. (Disclaimer: In no way shape or form did the photographer’s pan flash contribute to the demise of the Knutsen family.)

The Knutsen family compensates well for Sally’s (back row) lack of a lap by letting her join the group with her fiddle.

Or, “Now hold still Belvidear, and stop gnawing on Rose Marie’s foot!”
Or, “In this photo, two misfortunes were in-play: our faithful, beloved travel companion/side-kick/prized sheep-dog Belvidear was having an awful tizzy. Which is why our drummer(Mr. Jack White)isn’t in the shot. He was out seeking advice from a nearby Veterinarian.”
