Thread Name: The death of Louis Collins
Subject: RE: The death of Louis Collins
Bill Clifton's version of Louis Collins dates to 1963 and, like most of his work, did not sell well. He was a folksinger who thought he was Country.

The song has one of the great guitar breaks in Folk Revival history, done by Mike Seeger.

Anything Bill Clifton did with John Duffey, Jimmy Gaudreau, Mike Seeger and Hedy West and Red Rector is classic and worth looking for.
