Thread Name: Mitchell Trio Songbook?
Subject: RE: Mitchell Trio Song Book?
Just what I was looking for. I knew my fellow 'catters would come through.
Joe, you saved me over alot of money! In my haste to get this book, I (kind of) told Barbara that I'd give her an IOU for $ 7,347,289.27. It looks like the one available at Spivey's in KC MO is a hardback. At $12, its a bargin.

Barbara, I went through my tapes & CDs last night, but I left my list at home. I only have a couple of tapes, 5 CDs, and 2 videos. All CMT not MT. I'll let you know what I have. Please email or 'cat mail me with your contact info. I couldn't find you in the resources.
I'm surprised that the songbook, being published in '64, is named "The Mitchell Trio.....". To the best of my knowledge they used "...Chad....." until '66.

Funny story: Back in the summer of '66, my wife (then girl friend) and I went to the Cellar Door in DC to see the CMT. Well, Chad was ill that night, so they had some funny-looking, and even-funnier-sounding, guy with over-size glasses singing with Mike and Joe. It was terrible! They refunded our cover charge, and gave us free passes for another night. Of course you know the rest of the story. The strange guy was none other than John Dusendorff, who grew up to be John Denver.
