Lonesome,
I am a huge DVR fan. My favorites are:

"Inside Dave Van Ronk" - This is a compilation of two albums from the early 60's - has both blues and folk. 25 songs including Cocaine Blues, You've Been a Good Old Wagon, He Was a Friend of Mine, House Carpenter, Brian O'Lynne, Fair and Tender Ladies, etc.

"Sunday Street" - Just plain one of my favorites.

"Somebody Else, Not Me" - I think they got the name wrong on the CD Cover - Someone Else, Not Me. The CD is worth the price of this song, but has plenty of others as well.

"Going Back to Brooklyn" - Check out Garden State Stomp. After I heard him perform this song, someone yelled out "What Exit" - great NJ humor.

I have every vinyl, tape, and CD I have been able to find. Let me know if you have any questions about any other DVR material.
