Okay, in the last two pics you posted Neil, I am thinking that the one on the left is Acoma. It is certainly old enough, and has the two color beard. My Acoma has darker purple, but a lot of the database pictures are lighter like yours. Mine had 15 years of hiding under clay soils, so the soil has definitely influenced my coloration.
and for comparison.
