'Poor' Howard Stith

Hi everybody!

Because Howard Stith from Dover, NH, just undertakes a tour over Germany from south to north for 3 weeks,I am interested in whether somebody knows and possibly likes his ballads and blues.

That's all.

There are not enough good things to say about Howard's performance style, skill with his instrument or knowledge of Leadbelly and the blues as played by Leadbelly. He has performed and taught workshops on the blues for The Guitar League in Syracuse, NY and I feel confident to say he would be welcomed back when ever the schedules allowed.

He is a skilled story teller and notorious wit. I am proud to call him a friend and very happy to have him in my home when ever he travels by.

I met Howard years ago in St. Paul, MN. I was very impressed with what he did.
