I believe the group was actually called Giant Sunflower:

Val Garay, Terry Clements, Eddie Hoh, Rick Dey, Patti Phillips

...Val, still quite active with producing and industry involvement

ps) as well as the above tidbit, another testimonial to his playing accolades that came to mind, was that he accompanied ALL acts in that Detroit/Benefit years ago (Lightfoot, Denver, Taylor, Chapin)...a nice hand he received when Gord had him tip his 'cap' to the energized audience
