Thread Name: Fox Hollow Memories?
Subject: RE: Fox Hollow Memories?
It was "Bright Morning Stars," I believe, that someone quietly began and we all picked up around somebody's portable radio at Fox Hollow the night that Nixon resigned the presidency.

Musicmic, the song was "The Whistle that the Wee Herd Made." It is a poem set to music. I have it on another computer and can't remember the poet right now. I wonder if Bob himself set it to that tune. It would have been like him. I've had fragments of it in my head since that night. Does anyone have it all ?

You're right. It was one of the most marvelous introductions ever.
