I'd certainly like to hear more of Jim Ringer, Papa John Kolstadd, Poor Howard Stith, Judy Henske, Carolyn Hester, Jim Dawson, and Paul Mc Neil.

I imagine they are obscure only in the places they are not well known. ( I have been listening to the president and learning to appreciate his grasp of the obvious.) That is to say that maybe people we view as obscure are actually very regional. AS great a song writer and singer as Jim Craig is, he almost never gets outside the Chicago area.

Carolyn Hester is out and about more lately but not up in Central New York. The rest I haven't seen or heard of since the 70's.

Spaw and I will be glad to support Pat Sky's talents in this arena, a great performer and songwriter.

I also don't see enough of Kendall Morse to suit me. Virtually unknown in Central New York, I understand he has a coastal popularity.
