Howard Wales 77 keyboardist


Jerry Garcia usually played guitar at these free-form performances. The two were often joined by John Kahn on bass and Bill Vitt on drums. An album recorded at these sessions and released in 1998 is Side Trips, Volume One. A studio album featuring this same group of musicians, Hooteroll?, was released in 1971.[4]

Wales contributed to the 1970 Grateful Dead album American Beauty. He payed organ on the songs "Truckin'" and "Candyman", and piano on "Brokedown Palace".[2

6

• Neil Armstrong, 87, Canadian Hall of Fame ice hockey referee.[33]
