I was quite pleased when two mudcatters asked for the words to a song I wrote.

After hearing my version of Lorena, Pete Seeger said, "I didn't realize how lovely that song is until you sang it. Thanks for giving it back."

Eric Bogle told me that he was very pleased with my rendition of his song, The Band Played Waltzing Matilda.

Utah Phillips says I'm his favorite North American folk singer.

I may never sing again, but by god, I have had some great breaks.
