For something that is apparently that rare, that is a very good price! Snap them up!

It occurs to me that I saw a documentary in the last year that visited the very early performances of Cass Elliot. In New York City. If I can sort out where I saw it, I'll add it to this thread. It could have been a reference to a performance going back that far.

Tom discovers these things because he's a tour guide in New York (has focused mostly on Ellis Island, where we met as park rangers). He lives in the Village and has been researching it for years. It finally dawned on him that he should offer tours of Greenwich Village, and of course, that just makes him all the more interested in the ephemera of the music scene way before he got there. He can point out important buildings from the day that are now boarded up, as if nothing important happened there. It's kind of sad, in that context.
