This is a bunch of real good ideas and opinions. I too have a special place in my heart for the Trio- they did get me started. But we all do have our favorites; they're all individuals with distinctive voices and personalities. I stayed with them well through the 70s, although my favorite in terms of singing and attitude was always Dave Guard. What a wonderful sort of "dry, but intellectual" wit he was. I hope Bob recovers totally and is happy with whatever he chooses to do- Lord knows, he's "paid his dues" in the grueling world of constantly touring entertainers. And the others that continue to perform as the K.Trio- fine and double fine. We are in great need of anything that represents actual music, preferrably with folky roots, to counteract today's musical wasteland.
