Thanks to the artists:

Sally Timms: Vocals. Sally was born in Leeds, England. She grew up in the Yorkshire dales, sang in the church choir and performed in poetry recitals as a child. In 1985 she joined the Mekons as a full-time member.

Jon Langford: Vocals and guitar. Jon Langford is a founding member of legendary British rock band the Mekons. A native of South Wales, Langford now lives in Chicago. He continues to play and record with the Mekons, as well as The Pine Valley Cosmonauts, Skull Orchard & the Waco Brothers, to name a few. His multi-layered paintings take imagery from old country music publicity photos and sheet music and envelope them in a haze of ironic nostalgia.

Recorded and mixed by Mike Hagler at Kingsize Soundlabs, Chicago.
Overdubs at Studio Jim. 

Special thanks to the Estate of Bob Nolan and Warner-Chappel.

Very nice idea - good thoughts, great music, good photography - would have been nice to see the people take a sip from the glass(es) as it (they) got passed.
