Thread Name: San Francisco ...'The Drinking Gourd' ?
Subject: RE: San Francisco ...'The Drinking Gourd' ?
Hey Carl Pagter! My cousin turned me on to this thread because he was curious about Dad and Mom's Coffee House (The Shiloh) back in the day. I have some sweet memories of that place. I'm glad you are still strummin'! I have a great video of you and your son doing duet at my Dad's (Bill Holt) birthday party in Pine Grove 2001. Stu Goldberg was kind enough to take all of Dad's reel-to-reels, put them on CDs, and sent them to me in Huntsville AL after Daddy passed. I'm not sure which clubs or residences they are from, but there's lots of nostalgia. Lots of characters, including Pat Paulsen. I remember Tom Thorpe as well. If you are interested in a listing of the CDs, I'm happy to oblige. I think there are about 50 of them. The Drinking Gourd, the Hungry I, and the Purple Onion are those clubs I remember Mom and Dad spending much of their time.

Love You Mr. Pagter!
