Candlebrow Gear

[robinlandseadel at comcast.net]

Howzabout an image of Electric Miles? (Davis, though I suppose 
having some sort of stand-in for Blundell---arched back, crooked 
angle for the horn with the Harmon mute and pickup, but 
still---obviously---a clumsy honkey). They'll be a  CoC logo: 
"Up, Up & Away", with musical notation of the Jimmy Webb 
original in there somewhere.  This could work out, given enough 
photoshopping and licensing fees. . . .
