Gringo's

The following pic was obtained for us by Colin Howson who writes

Alan - I got this picture of really early Gringo's from Colin Morland's wife Dorothy - she lives in Florida and is planning to come over here this summer and hopefully catch the VSL night while she's here.
This photo was taken before George and Don Bolam joined - Colin is on the left, Barry wardle on the right, George Hall (bass player) 3rd from left (he lives in Australia now) - the others I don't know - perhaps if you're in touch with Barry he can shed light?
cheers, Colin
