GR translation: some other such longlip bridlejaw cowboy

[Mike Weaver]

How about you provide some links coz I too can't find any mentions of 
long lips or bridle jaws, though plenty of mentions of bridles, jaws and 
just occasionally lips, though no reference to length of said lips. Tom 
Mix however did have long lips...
