WOW! I am Tom Meisenheimer's daughter and was looking around the internet for obscure folk singer info and found this thread (gotta love technology!). To respond to "Fastblind" (though that post was a while ago) my dad is still playing music, though in New Haven, MO. Herb is still in Yountville, doing ok, just got a call from him today as a matter of fact (hence the search for my childhood on the internet).

It was always a treat to have my dad, Herb, Mick (Milton) and lord knows who else in our living room, teaching us the music, playing REAL music. And I even remember being about 4 years old and dancing impromptu Irish jigs at the Folk Music Club in San Francisco. I was lucky enough to be able to bring my daughter (when she was about 7) up to Mike Heintz's property and listen to Herb, Mike and my dad throw down a great old session of good music.

Thanks for having this thread, it was a nice bit of nostalgia.
