Guests included Elizabeth Cotton and the Beers Family. Also a show I believe was called "Live at Wolf Trap," same era? Any idea if these shows are available on video? I also recall a PBS show from that time period featuring Bascom Lamar Lunsford. "American Roots" music, indeed. |

And the PBS show was part of the "American Experience" series. "Bascom Lamar Lunsford, Ballad of a Mountain Man". It's a good'un. Your library should be able to get that too. Handy thing these libraries. Rex |

If you're around a larger city, it should be no problem at all. Check the one with Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee. Spaw |

Baryshnikof, Martha Graham, and Bubbles Silverman (in Daughter of the Regiment)are the ones that come to mind. It was (is) a great performance space. I don't think they are available comercially because the rights were not cleared in perpetuity. Sourdough |

This isn't the PBS special, though. Most of the Rainbow Quests that were published on DVD are on YouTube, too. Only 6 DVDs seem to be available for sale, representing fewer than half of the thirty or so episodes that were originally made. |
