Who was the coolest looking musician for you as a teen?

Hands down, Dave Mustaine. Even now, this era gets my man-crush going.

I'm not really a fan of Jeff Beck, but the era when he was playing that Les Paul produced some fantastic guitar-hero images.

Lots of girls did. Precisely why he was so cool .

Brian May I guess, Gary Moore looked cool as well and of course Steve Stevens

Probably fueled by lust more than anything but Wendy James seemed impossibly cool when I was a teen. Surprisingly hard to find a pic that matches my memory and the years have not been kind to her.

That makes someone cool? I was more into faith no more and suicidal tendencies. 

Depends what you consider cool.

It was Nick Cave for me.

For me it was Dave Mustaine....got the bullet belt, denims, grew the locks, learnt the riffs etc. Now I just think he's a bit of a prat.
