It is with a heavy heart that I write this. Monte Dunn was a friend of mine at a time when we were both young and impressionable. In the past few days, I've been speaking with Monte's stepdaughter. On a thread called "Little known folksingers of the sixties"she posted the following to the Mudcat. I'm posting it to every musical list or forum I know: " Monte was a big part of the Folk Music scene and he passed away this April 25, 2007. His discography is rather extensive to include Ian & Sylvia, David Blue, Music director for Chad Mitchell, Sonny and Cher, Richie Havens, Peter, Paul and Mary as well as a guitarist with Jack Eliot for the 1976 Phil Ochs Memorial Concert at the Felt Forum. He left his wife Liane Dunn and also three daughters on the West coast, Cleo, Jesse and Pam. I am his step-daughter, Jacquie." If anyone out there is in direct contact with Ian Tyson, could you please pass this along to him? Jacquie has been trying to reach him. Thank you, Joanne Crabtree
