I met Tom Hoskins at a Mississippi John Hurt workshop held during the Folklore Society of Greater Washington (FSGW) Getaway program back in the early part of the 1990s. I didn't know who Tom (Wolf) was at the time but later learned that I had touched a part of the mainstream Blues Revival of the early 1960s. voyager |
