GUEST,Kenny C Who Is Steve Goodman? (1948-1984) (110* d) RE: Who Is Steve Goodman? 01 Mar 15


I was also at the show Steve did at SUNY Binghamton-was in 74 or 75. The show was in the Social Room and Paula Lockhart opened supported by Peter Eklund on cornet-they were very good and as I recall Peter sat in with Steve on a song or 2. Steve played solo acoustic and put on the best show I ever saw bar none.He would play hilarious tunes with amazing guitar playing and then switch to poignant songs such as the Dutchman and My OLld Man-which brought me to tears. You could have heard a pin drop when he did that one. He also covered John Prine's Christmas in Prison which he also played when I saw him a few years later at the Great American Music Hall in San Francisco. Would love to have a recording of either saw. He was quite simply the best.
