Julia K

So perfectly does Julia Krystyna Krajewska embody the Spirit of Rock that we reckon she must have been carved from purest Warsaw granite sometime in the late Cretaceous period (well, sometime in the late 1970's anyway). In fact, such is the depth of her rockularity that if she ever had to go under the knife, God forbid, we think that the surgeon would find the chords to "Purple Haze", or at the very least "Smells like Teen Spirit" tattooed throughout her gizzards like that other form of rock so popular in British culture.
