Back in '95 while I was recording at Folk-Legacy, and making the most amazing discoveries (antiquarian books that I never thought I'd actually SEE let alone read...weird and wonderful instruments poking out of every alcove..and folk periodicals from the dawn of the revival) I discovered some humble tapes, barely even labeled. One day I sat down and started listening. What a treasure...dozens of songs by a writer who's existence I was barely familiar with. Most people as prolific as Jerry have a LOT of filler material...but each song was a GEM!

Every visit to Sharon Ct. brought new discoveries. Jerry, Bob Coltman, Craig Johnson, Dillon Bustin, Kendall Morse...it's a LONG list.
