GUEST,Guest:Mudlark Help: Why so little interest in performing 60s (94* d) RE: Help: Why so little interest in performing 60s 27 Aug 02


I've played Wagoner's Lad, and Who's gonna shoe your pretty little foot, and Shadygrove, to name 3 of about a million--give or take--of old songs of their ilk for 40 years. And you are right, Jerry, to most people now they are brand new.

I agree also that Leadbelly, Doc Watson, the Carter Family and the songs they sing/sang will be around long after the likes of the K Trio are forgotten. Tho I listened to the K. Trio, et al, I thought they were uncool and dorky compared to MacCall, Cynthia Gooding, etc. A little like the Boston Pops doing the Beetles...

Don Firth...great story!
