Subject: RE: Info & stories about John Greenway
Thanks, Bob, for adding from your experience with Greenway.

I only listened to his Talking Blues recording, the Australia Bush Ballads recording, and read his American Folksongs of Protest from cover to cover. Usually there's some unhappy political encounter which one can trace the swing from left to right. Greenway was still left-leaning at the end of the McCarthy period and I'm unaware if he ever gave testimony before any of the committees giving hearings. Any other clues?
