The Dave Makela Quartet

I spent a couple of hours last night cleaning up this amazing picture.

Dave Makela (left), Bobby Newman (center), Danny Kissinger (right) and Dick Drew (rear, on drums) play “Roll on, Big Jimmie” in Duc Pho, Vietnam LZ Bronco, 1968

The band was unnamed, but since Dave is the only known surviving member, it has been retroactively called “The Dave Makela Quartet”
