Subject: RE: What was Lee Hays really like...?
Reading these in AWE of some of the history that you folks are telling me about. Frank H-- I have been an admirer of yours since Caravan magazine did a profile on you in the late 50s (I got the back issue about 2 years later)-- heard you on the 1959 Newport Folk Festival album doing ONE cut (Lady Gay? and I had never heard of B. Kazee at the time. . . ) then Nonesuch came out and I was hooked. Hope these stories will continue as they make those days far more real to me, and I lived through them! (never quit my day job, though, so I have Roads Not Taken)
