"Yeah, I came to New York in 1960, and was there when Dylan came, and you could listen to Mississippi John Hurt all night at the Gaslight Cafe, nursing a cup of coffee, and saw everything disintegrate into 45 minute sets with a cover charge I could never afford. Money does it, every time."

Jerry,

You certainly never listened to Mississippi John Hurt all night at the Gaslight in 1960. John's rediscovery was only in 1963. When he played at the Gaslight, it was never all night, it was always on the bill with other artists.

I know of what I speak, I was John's manager and traveling companion.
