Subject: Mark Spoelstra on WFDU From: Ron Olesko Date: 29 May 02 - 09:31 AM This Sunday, June 2, I will be talking with Mark Spoelstra and sharing selections from his new CD "Out of My Hands" (Origin Jazz Library). This recording is the first in over 20 years for Mark, one of the outstanding musicians of the 1960's Folk Revival who dropped out of the "business" for personal reasons. His guitar work remains incredible, and his new songs are gems! He tells some amazing stories of his early career, where he has been, and why he is returning to the folk arena. Join us this Sunday on WFDU-FM's TRADITIONS - 89.1 FM in the NYC area, or tune in via the internet at www.wfdu.fm. Ron Olesko Producer/Host WFDU-FM's TRADITIONS |

I really liked Mark Spoelstras stuff, and heard him singing in the Village in the early sixties. My favorite was dead thumb roll... It's great that he's got a new album out! Jerry |
