Apartment Therapy found a fantastic LIFE magazine photo series from the 1970s of rock stars at home with their folks. Above is Frank Zappa. Also included are the likes of David Crosby, Grace Slick, Donovan, Jackson 5, Elton John, and Eric Clapton. “Look! 70’s Rock Musicians and Their Parent’s Homes” (Thanks, Richard Metzger!)
