One point I am going to make in a future post is that there weren't 'members' of the Garcia/Saunders group until Legion Of Mary. In any case, if you can place some actual dates on Fogerty's participation, that's great. As far as my own speculations, well, hey, I was just hooterollin around.Corry342https://www.blogger.com/profile/08049035074121231425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5268955857828486331.post-48757368614798285842012-03-09T19:59:36.252-08:002012-03-09T19:59:36.252-08:00As nicely as things line up, I have evidence that ...As nicely as things line up, I have evidence that Fogerty was with these guys over a year before this. Staska and Mangrum (1) include a brief review of a Garcia-Saunders-Fogerty-Vitt (and presumably Kahn) gig at New Monk on Saturday, 6/26/71.<br /><br />They have some fair amount of discussion of Tom's recording activities in various columns around ca. June 1971, as well, at least a half-year earlier than your postulated early 1972 time period.<br /><br />(1) Staska, Kathie, and George Mangrum. 1971. Rock Talk by KG: Instruments, singers help sets.

Of course, it wasn't a band in that sense, so he didn't precisely join, but the dates seem to line up surprisingly cleanly.Corry342https://www.blogger.com/profile/08049035074121231425noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5268955857828486331.post-52220626618012192862012-03-08T16:15:29.388-08:002012-03-08T16:15:29.388-08:00Thanks for this.
