Ain't it nice to be reassured, Art? Thanks, rich r!

By the way, folks, I didn't mean to steer any of you away from Art's recording of the song! Far from it. Shucks, I was the one who urged him to record for Folk-Legacy. I'd met Art in Chicago when he was still a pup, but didn't realize what a super presenter of traditional songs he had become until I heard him again when Lisa Null brought him to a festival she produced here in Connecticut. Bowled me over, he did.

Get 'em to order the LP, Art. I suspect Mudcatters are the kind of folks who keep their turntables working because of all the great LPs they collected in the 60s and can't find now as a long file of zeros and ones. Caroline and I are the same way. Hundreds of beloved LPs that may never see digital daylight.
