I've just been listening to Bill Ochs and Peter Browne on Lyric FM talking about the former's double CD of the recordings of Micho Russell. See http://mudcat.org/thread.cfm?threadid=156907&messages=1 In it Ochs says that in 1969 he took Micho to meet Bill Leader (the legendary folk music recording engineer) and Leader recorded him. This would have been well before Bill started Leader Sound, and while he was working for Topic. Does anyone know whether the tape still survives and what sort of state it's in? Also, whether there are any other unissued recordings by Bill Leader that have yet to see the light of day?
