Subject: Lyr Req: Looking for 1st ed. Seeger banjo book
My friend and fellow musician, Elijah Wald is doing a book on Dylan at Newport '65, and would like to talk to anyone who was there. He is also looking for the 1st edition of the Pete Seeger HOW TO PLAY THE 5 STRING BANJO. If someone out there in 'Catland has a 1st (or 2nd, before it was published by Oak)edition. Would they please check to see if Pete transcribed the old ballad EAST VIRGINIA? Elijah can be reached at elijah@elijahwald.com. Thanks
