Several sources -- a couple of liner notes, as well as Eddie Brown's website -- make reference to Gilbert having some sort of medical problem or mental illness which he overcame. I've been unable to find anything to indicate exactly what this was. I think it's an important part of the story and should be added if anyone can track down the information. More detail can also be provided regarding Eddie Brown. The article makes it seem as if his career ended with Joe's death, when the bio on Brown's website indicates otherwise. 23skidoo13:58, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The image currently leading the page will need to be replaced. Wikipedia's rules on image use don't allow for record covers to be used, plus this particular image seems to be tiny, anyway. I'll see if I can get a better image from a frame grab. 23skidoo14:03, 20 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
