Subject: RE: Little known '60s Folk Singers
Deckman or Don Firth, whoever gets there first:

I remember Ivar Haglund mainly for the giant bowls of steamed clams I used to enjoy in his downtown Seattle restaurant, around 1961 or '62, during the fair. I know he had another, better known location on the waterfront. Was he not the author of the song, "Acres of Clams" as well? If you know, which came first, the restaurant or the song?
