Re: Famous Mini owners
2nd from the left, gotta' be Manfred Man - with the Manfreds. Or were they called 'the earth band' And the MM number plate too.
Not my music of the era. More of a Creedence Clearwater man and a band that never(?) made it in the UK. Paul Revere and the Raiders. Big in Vung-Tau

Don't think it's Manfred Mann, two of them wore specs
I thought it might be Hermans Hermits, but again one of them always wore spec.

Re: Famous Mini owners
Music of the 60s …. my favourite subject.
You might think it sad that I know this but the band were the short-lived Ministry of Sound.
L to R: Steve Priest (later of the Sweet), Dave Wintour (later of the Pretty Things and the Wurzels!), Robin Shaw (later of the Flower Pot Men and White Plains), Micky Keen (Flower Pot Men and Hudson Ford) and Eddie Richards (Edison Lighthouse).
Here’s a Mini related pic for Manfred Fans:

Re: Famous Mini owners
Did ex-PM James Callaghan have a Mini Clubman, or is this just a photo-op at the Motorshow?

The Cortina had to go to the garage that day and his accordion wouldn't fit into the boot of the courtesy car.
