Photos of 1970s rock stars with their parents reveal humble roots in their childhood homes

In 1971, the likes of Eric Clapton, Frank Zappa, Elton John and the Jackson Five were some of the most famous celebrities in their world. 

But for their parents, these ultra-famous rock stars were still only grown-up children, whom they doted on and fussed over.

LIFE Magazine photographer John Olson followed some of these big name stars home to see their parents to tell the inside story of the private lives of famous musicians and show their person histories.
