I have over 20 versions and this is equal first (with the rest) !! Bonnie Carol, Townes, Pentangle, Ashley, Kweskin, Doc, Dylan, Renbourne, Hersch, Tanyas, Elliott ………………

DonGenarosDog February 2, 2010 at 8:15 am: The circle w/ a half circle on top is the astrological sign for Taurus. Since Taj is a Taurus (May 17th), I would gather that’s why it’s included.
CiscoNast February 2, 2010 at 8:15 am: Oh that was helpful. (sarcastic)
SidewalksOfNY315 February 2, 2010 at 8:15 am: To be honest with you, I have no idea what type symbol thats on top of his head!
