These look great. I have to point out it's "Jerry" (not "Gerry") Garcia and "Phil" (not Paul) Lesh. These two were both long-time members of the Grateful Dead, and close followers may have ended up a little addled by this time, if you know what I mean.
But the music lives on.
Thanks, Duke, for letting us know about the errors. I must have been thinking of - oh! no! - Gerry and the Pacemakers! Sorry Jerry!
