Dear Mudcat folks,
I am compiling Dave Van Ronk's memoir of the folk revival 1955-65, a project we were working on together -- albeit in a rather desultory fashion -- in the years before his death. This leaves me in the difficult position of doing what will have to be largely an "as told to" book without the teller, so I am putting out a call for any interviews people may have done with Dave over the years.

I am looking for Dave's own words, please, not other people's memories of him, wonderful as those may be. The idea was to do his history of the period, rather than a biography of him, and I am trying to keep the focus on that theme.

Many thanks,
Elijah
