Subject: RE: Tom Taylor ? Did Woody---Where is he?
Hi Tom,

I don't know if you will remember, but back around 1977 you and Marjorie Guthrie did a radio program with me at WFDU-FM in Teaneck, NJ.   It was actually the first interview and special program that I ever produced, and it was a pivotal moment for me. I was so inspired by Marjorie and interviewing the two of you that I began to really focus on folk music and radio.   So many years later, I am still on WFDU-FM hosting a folk show.

A very-belated "thank you" for coming on the program. You really captured Woody's music and more importantly - his spirit.   I don't think anyone has come close to presenting Woody in such a fashion.   Did you ever record any of your one-man shows? I would love to hear it again.

By the way, if you would like a copy of that interview, please get in touch - wfdutraditions@aol.com

Thanks again!
