Yes, amazing how the wheel makes things seem to come full circle and begin again --- different yet so similar it makes one amazed at the sight of it. And the envelope of ourselves is pushed yet another time...

Mick, I've got to send you a tape of the recording of Utah Phillips' radio show #77 where he used that tape I made of Paul Durst 40 years back. I always KNEW that was a valuable interview in the hands of someone who recognized what it was --- what Paul represented. Utah was the perfect one to see it for what it is---and he was in the position to utilize it and show it off. I'm truly glad it happened while I'm still around to see it (and hear it) happen. It drives me nuts when people are dead before some of their work gets noticed.

So----the wheel --- the same one you mentioned ---spun in this case too. I wish old Paul could know he's still being a factor at this latter date. Some would say he does know---but I really doubt that.

Onward...
