Quite an interesting read and a fair bit of thought gone into the whole thing.

Thanks for posting. An interesting (an obsessive) read. I feel better about some of my OCD tendencies.

Thank you for clarifying. I was thinking it was my fading memory.

Cheers.

Fascinating, in a geeky kind of way!

I may have missed it, but where was the grassy knoll?

Interesting brick pattern as he calls it, or "bond" as a bricklayer would call it. Similar to English garden wall bond which has 3 courses of "stretchers" followed by a course of "headers". This bond with 5 courses of stretchers between the headers is known as "American Bond"......... I'll get my coat.................

"They were taken by the celebrated rock photographer James Marshall in Macon, Georgia, the home of Capricorn records and home base of the Allman's, supposedly after photos taken at the Fillmore in New York weren't deemed of high enough caliber "

Has anybody ever seen these pictures?
