Subject: RE: Singin' a Gospel song on Ed Sullivan.
WHEW INDEED! Yes Norma and I brought Joan and her friend home and we all hung out for a couple of days. We enjoyed the time and I know Joan and her friend did also. Joan was still quite new to the scene and really liked quiet places to 'hidey hole' and avoid all the publicity. During that time, I learned a lot about what life on the road was really like. I'm just now reading "Positively 4th Street: The Lives and Times of Joan Baez, Bob Dylan, Mimi Baez and Richard Farina." Everything I read so far rings very true to what I saw in 1962. I kept up a little coorespondence with her for a while, and then visited with her again at the 65 Berkeley Folk Festival. What wonderful times those were. CHEERS, Bob
