During early '60's high school in NY, I'd run off to the village, but right now I want to hit the W. Coast for a minute to sew something on to Art Thieme's comments above about ED. Besides partnering Kicking Mule, ED was involved in the making of some John Fahey albums, and can be heard on harmonica on a cut of Fahey's The Voice Of The Turtle album - the liner notes say some bizarre things about him. I had the pleasure of accompanying ED on a three-day kayak trip in 1979. ED was writing a whitewater book and was looking for undocumented rivers. ED's web page is at http://www.asis.com/~edenson/edhome.html. He's into some interesting things in N. California now - from folk music on KMUD to saving the forests to giving unofficial legal advise.
