Subject: Paying gig for Slate (pentax used so not OT)

Stefan asked me for a photo of Lester for this article.. (although the
credit reads "courtesy" I am getting paid :-))

The passing of the subject in February was yet another reason why I was so
depressed. Les and wife Joan were good friends and Lester was also an old
friend of my Richard's (who was another Flea House player and the reason
Funk and Wag was used for the "official" dictionary there.)

It's a lovely article - hope you read it..

Stefan cropped out the person Les was talking to, which works for the
article.  The black and white rendering that was previously published in the
book Letterati is here:
