Denny Doherty from the Mamas and Papas. Although I believe most of their hits feature either Joe Osborn or Carol Kaye on bass.

The Mama and Papas, known for their pounding double kickdrums.

 

And is that actually a portrait of the drummer himself on the kickdrum skins?

Thats renowned session drummer Hal Blaine. As far as I remember those pictures are of 60's surf rockers Jan and Dean 😁

Ah, I see.

 

Otherwise I would say it, combined with the double kickdrums, would have given off the impression of him being a bit self-indulgent.
