Yeah, I knew Billy Roberts. He was hanging out in the Seattle area during the Seattle World's Fair in 1962. He sang a bit at the "92 Yesler" coffeehouse, as I recall.

I met Rolf Cahn in Berkeley in 1959. Had some good song-swapping sessions with him. 12-string guitar? I don't know about that. He wasn't playing one when I knew him. He played a steel-string (6-string) guitar, and he also played a very fine Rodrigues flamenco guitar.

Terry Wadsworth, I knew quite well. I think he was originally from Tacoma, Washington, but he lived in Seattle for several years in the late 1950s and early 1960s. Sang in coffeehouses quite a bit. Randy Sparks drifted through town looking to recruit a new singer or two for the New Christy Minstrels, heard Terry, and hired him. He sang with the NCM for about a year, then had a disagreement with Sparks and quit. Came back to Seattle for a visit, then moved on. I haven't seen him or heard anything about him since.
