Who is the most famous rock and roll baby? The answer is not Stella McCartney or Sean Lennon but Spencer Elden. Spencer who? Spencer Elden was born February 7, 1991 to Renata and Rick Elden who had a photographer friend named Kirk Weddle. Kirk paid the Eldens $200 to photograph their infant son underwater in a pool and they ended up creating what would become one of the greatest rock and roll album covers ever, Nirvana’s Nevermind.

Now a teenager, Spencer has recreated the famous picture twice, once for Rolling Stone in 2001 and once again in 2008 (although this time he wore a swimsuit). The hook, line and dollar bill on the cover were superimposed later so please don’t think they were actually fishing for babies. While Spencer is now slightly embarrassed that everyone has seen him naked, he truly is the most rocking baby of all time since it’s fair to say that Nevermind defined a generation and launched a new musical movement in the nineties. Break out the old CD and play down “Lithium” and “Smells Like Teen Spirit” one more time. 19 years later and the tracks have still not lost their edge.
