Subject: RE: Merlin Banjo (and the Chicago Folk Scene)
Sorry, Arto, I'm pretty sure I is right. Look at the album jacket. They're smoking outside, standing across the street from the "New" Gate. The marquee is behind them announcing in big letters: GIBSON & CAMP. Now, maybe it WAS recorded at the "old" Gate, but they were singing at the new Gate when it came out. We folkies assumed it was at the "new" Gate. Maybe I've been wrong all these 40 years. I'm going to send you Camp's eMail eDress and you can ask him. Let me know what he says.
