    I recently bought a 1977 Renaissance tour program autographed by all five band members. Inside the program was the following piece. I imagine this autograph was gotten the same night as Renaissance.

    Does anyone know the history of the band, maybe this was an opening act. A fan of the band might know. I wasn't.

    I do know the top line says Every best Jim - and ends with 1977

    It doesn't look like his signature I'm finding with Google, but..
    Jean-Luc Ponty?

    I also posted it at a facebook group on autographs and someone said "I don't know what his autograph looks like, but I'm reading Frank Sinatra Jr." WTF?

    Someone else posted this photo of Frankie JR...

    MYSTERY SOLVED!

    I'm floored. Not that it's Jr. That someone looked at that paper and read his name.

    Figtree3 What would you do if you weren't afraid?

    Wow!

    There was an episode of the Mike Douglas Show from March 1977 that included both Frank Sinatra, Jr. and Renaissance as guests.
