The Boston folk scene was a big one. Players at the Turks Head, Sword In the Stone and Club 47 were coffeehouses, and those who performed there eventually made records and most still perform. Tom Hall, Jaime Brockett, Rocky Rockwood and Kenny Girard, live in New Hampshire, Paul MacNeil lives in the Phillippines and comes back to California occasionally, I have a music publishing company in San Jose California, and Paul Lolax is writing music for Mel Bay, and has recordings on the Internet. Dan Gravas still plays, and Paul Geremia and Chris Smither both have wonderful instructional music videos, and I saw them in a wonderful Public Television film about playing the Blues. Chris Smither plays all over Europe - all the time. Playing music just gets better. Music is forever. Lesley PS: join an interactive music group: Sanjose_musician_connection@yahoogroups.com
