Subject: RE: Little known '60s Folk Singers
As far as little known folk singers go, my parents were some of Cleveland,Ohio's best in the 60's and 70's. They were the house group at Faraghers Back Room for quite a while.Dick,Georgie and Don Minke,who went by the name The Shawnee Three or sometimes Trio. From Faraghers, they went on to play at Gallaghers at 22nd and Euclid for over 2 years six nights a week. With many,many gigs in between,they wound up playing at Koepners Tavern in Hudson every weekend for a few years.They got to jam with such great people as Tedd Browne,Oscar Brand,the Dillingers,the Knoblick Upper 10,000,Judy Henske,Gustie Hervey,Sean Moore,Daniel & Dimitri,Bob Gibson,Jim Glover,the list is almost endless.I was glad to find this thread.Keep it a goin' on!
