And one more score from our Colorado visit

  

A framed photo of the band, Slumgullion.


 

These would be the people who lived in our basement for six weeks in Colorado when Becky was a baby, so 1969 or 70.  An unfinished basement, they put in some cots and hung sheets and blankets on the walls as noise insulation.  They only practiced during the day while Judy and I, and Becky, were away at work, the babysitter, and school.  Once Slumgullion hooked up with the Hungry Farmer in Boulder, they played there for years.  Other gigs too, but we usually went to see them at the Farmer.

 

The Farmer was way outside of town on Arapahoe just east of 55th.  (That’s not way outside of town anymore.)  It’s long gone now, but I found a couple pictures online for anyone who remembers Boulder in the ‘70s.
