The digest version of this list is wonderful.  As Michelle stated there 
is no editing or elimination.  One message composed of many.

Okay...I have a Partridge Family CD.

However, as a college student in 1977 I went for a quarter of study to 
England and Austria.  While in England, after a night at a pub (shandy 
was interesting); a group of us found a gaggle of young girls chasing a 
limo down a street.  We asked one girl with tears streaming down her 
cheeks who was in the car.

"David Cassidy," she wailed.

We (without meaning to offend) burst out laughing hysterically.

Hopefully, she got over our indictment,

   and I still sing along with "Somebody wants to love you"

Thanks for the list,

I was obviously exaggerating a little about the problems associated with
folk festivals, but your shows do sound pretty solid. I love wandering around
the festival grounds watching different hammer dulcimer artists, and bluegrass
bands, etc. I just get a little frustrated sometimes because there are a lot
of established artists I'd like to see in a setting with good sound.

Any ideas what the 1/98 show line-up will be?

From: Bill Reynolds <wbr@ibm.net>
Subject: Introduction 

My name is Bill, I've recently joined this list and am looking forward
to whatever it brings. I'm from the San Diego (CA) area...Santee to be
exact.  Both my kids were born at Mercy Hospital which I seem to
remember John saying that's where he was born. I first became acquainted
with John Stewart while in the Navy (68-72).  I found the Willard album
in the ship's store.  The cover caught my eye and I was intrigued
because of the people playing on the album. So began many years of
listening pleasure. I've been an amatuer/wannabe musician (guitar) since
high school and have had great enjoyment playing and sharing his (your)
music.  A short list of favorite artists include (other than the
obvious): 
Dylan 			Peter Paul & Mary
Jerry Jeff Walker	David Bromberg
Guy Clark		Steve Goodman 
Ry Cooder		James Taylor
Kenny Loggins		The Band
Neil Young		CS&N
Probably a pretty standard list for this group.  Somebody mentioned
Harry Nillson a couple days ago  -- I've been singing "Nobody Cares
About the Railroads Anymore" ever since.  Brought back alot of
memories.  Speaking of memories does anyone remember Joe & Eddie?  
I'm not quite sure what attracts me to a particular artist but usually I
find some emotional link with the music.  Also, I think quite often,
there's a direct relationship between my abiltiy to enjoy listening to
an artist or their music and my enjoyment in playing or trying to play
their tunes - shallow maybe, but what the hell. John Stewart's music was
perfect for me in all repects!     
I prefer to think that there's no bad music though, just music I'm
unable to appreciate. With a couple of exceptions I won't get in to,
I've found that I can appreciate most music at some level. The biggest
revelation for me was when I began studying piano.  I never appreciated
or enjoyed many classical composers until I tried to play their music. 
There are now a few Schubert and Brahms pieces I get very emotional
over.  Maybe it's just my age.
For you guitar players:  I had been saving for a Martin D28 for years. 
I finally bought one in 1972.  Though I was thrilled and proud to own it
and got tremendous enjoyment playing it, I always felt like it was
missing something or that it was not quite what I really wanted.  While
searching a few years ago for a Martin J40 for my brother I stumbled
into a music store that had a wall of Taylor instruments.  I played a
615 and knew the minute my fingers touched the strings that this is the
instrument I'd been wanting all my life.  I bought it that day.  My two
brothers and I now own about 9 Taylors.  (I say "about" because I can't
keep track of their purchases.  I still only have the 615)  Every Taylor
I've played sounds better than the last.  I live about 5 miles from the
factory and visit often, what a place!  I've been particularly blessed
because one of my brothers became a "friend of the Taylor family"
(through church) and I was able to attend a couple concerts given for
the employees by Taylor artists: Leo Kotke and Dan Crary.  A very unique
experience.
I've only been able to see John Stewart live three times.  Once at some
place in Huntington Beach over 15 years ago.  The one thing I remember
most about it was that he played piano on a couple tunes.  As far as I
know, he hasn't been to San Diego in many years, but I always keep my
eye out.  The last time I saw him was at a place in Solana Beach or
Encinitas I forget which but the resturant is gone now.  It was about
the time "Punch the Big Guy" was released.  He (you John) were
incredible.  You were playing an electric - Takamine I think - with some
amazing results.  "Ticket to the Stars" I'll never forget!  I'd never
heard that kind of sound.                 
I'm beginning to ramble.  
Best to you all, I'll be in touch,
Bill

Closet songs? Maybe you should lock me up....
I think I remember that song! 2 of my closet confessions from that era were a
song by Patty Duke about butterflies I think and a song that I think was
called The Joker Went Wild by Brian Hyland? Never had either of these two
records but loved to hear them on the radio at the time. This may not be a
confession, but as a long time Rick Nelson fan I enjoyed all of his stuff and
couldn't wait till the end of Ozzie & Harriet till Rick might be on. Oh,
here's some more  closet confessions. I couldn't tell you what 60's show this
was on, but Walter Brennan sang a song about One of These Days I'm going to
climb that Mountain... I know it was released on an album but I heard it on a
show and just loved it as a kid. And you will know that I was really sappy
because I liked that John Davidson show, esp the part at the end when he took
song requests. You know, like Down in the valley in a little bitty stream
swam two little fishies and a mommie fish too. Swim said the mommie fish swim
if you can and they swam and they swam right over the dam... How's that for
an LSD flashback, Yikes! 

And thanks for the recollection of the Freddie! What a riot that was. In the
6th grade we had some sort of singing class and we usually practised songs
from things like My Fair Lady or Mary Poppins or what have you. One day
however we went to the cafeteria and I guess this was the teacher throwing us
a changeup pitch. She put on Freddie and The Dreamers and had us all waving
our arms around doing the Freddie. We were so hysterical that I can still
remember the stomach pains from laughing so hard and falling down on the
floor. 

And I even have a couple of John Fred albums. His band had several good
songs. And I even listened to Rod McKuen. I sort of liked that gravel road
voice and I wonder now had good or bad some of those songs would sound
today??

"The Last Hurrah" is one of my very favorite songs. To me it's about not
giving up on a dream. "Clean your guns the battle's over, they belong
now to the wind" That always makes me think of Bobby Kennedy and Martin
Luther King, Jr. "In Tennessee they were forsaken, LA was the coup de
grace". King was killed in Memphis and Kennedy in LA.  But I only listen
to the song (and sing it) I didn't write it....only the writer can tell
us what he was referring to.

Bad news in Santa Cruz: some of you Northern California Liners may have
seen John's concerts at Palookaville, a local club. Owner Michael Horne
announced last week that he is closing the club....sad for us.....it was
a great place to see John, Dave and Buffy. Sad for the whole community
as Michael tried to offer us a wide variety of music and artists. Good
news in Santa Cruz: Robert Earl Keen, HERE, next Saturday.

Michelle good luck with the house-hunting...ours cost less than $200,000
but it's small.

We have been 'round and 'round about this one, Robert. The general
consensus of the list members is that a little fluff is to be expected on
this list. Everyone does their best to remember to send personal messages
personally, but sometimes we forget or are just too lazy to replace the
address in the "to:" field. Every once in awhile we get reminded (someone
blows their top, or sends flames) and eveyone else says "oh, lighten up"
and it calms down and we do better for awhile.

I guess it's my responsibility to remind members of this every 3000 miles.
Consider it done.

As for the technical problems with Sofware Tool and Die in Boston (from
where all your messages congregate and disseminate) they are aware of the
problem, are working on the problem and (as usual) have no idea when the
problem will be fixed. I guess we could look at it this way: Extra messages
are better than lost ones, right?

Well, take care all my little goslings. Keep following your mother, we'll

Hi Ron.  I think Walter Brennan sang that song on "The Real McCoys" before it

Nah. Take comfort... everybody is getting double and triple posts at times.
It's some glitch with Software Tool and Die in Boston (our service

Try New Mexico.  Reasonable home prices (if you stay away from Santa Fe

PS: thanks for getting me back on the 'Blood.
