"The Kid Charlemagne referred to
in this song was my old friend Bear.
I remember his four way windowpane in the early 70's
was kitchen clean.
I met him on Grateful Dead tour
55 years ago and remained friends.
He became a silversmith later in life
and made belt buckles for me and my wife.
He was killed in a car accident
in Australia a decade or so back.
Still miss him.
His life is worth exploring.
He was Owsley Stanley and he was
one of the coolest cats to breathe air."
