Procol Harum's Golden Decade

Commemorated on a Tee-shirt


Bert Saraco writes
In 1977 I bought a bootleg LP (Five and Dime?) that had a loose, cheap Xerox-type copy for a 'cover' ... so I started to draw my own cover on the blank white cardboard! This wasn't the smartest move I ever made, obviously. Anyway, the drawing grew and grew ... and still, it did grow (wait a minute, that's The Worm And The Tree ... ) - anyway, I eventually included most of the key players in the (then) ten-year history of the band.

So, officially ... the drawing was complete in 1999. I call it 'The Golden Decade' and recently put it on a T-shirt and gave it to Gary at the All-Starr gig in Westbury to replace the one that I gave him in 1995. I guess I'd call it a T-shirt upgrade. Totally Y2K compliant.


Please write in to BtP if you have designed your own PH tee-shirts:
it would be nice to make a gallery of them
