Yes, Jim Longhi's book is the best account although I would put Ed Cray's book up there.

Woody was a hero in my estimation. He knew he had Huntington's although they didn't ,know what to call it in those days. Woody fought for life every day and speaking of not being nice to people, well, there's Dylan.

A lot of times, artistic people aren't especially nice to everyone. It doesn't come with the territory.

My experience with Woody is that he was generous, kind, and a giving person, and he helped me as a musician and teacher.
