This art was done as a tribute and dedication to some of the musical artists of my youth who have passed on to Rock and Roll Heaven - Elvis Presley, John Lennon, George Harrison, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix. (For Jerry Garcia's dedication see Have You Seen the White Rabbit, which is my dedication to The Haight in the sixties.)
