For a minute there, I thought you had written "Kate Bush," and I was thinking you had an incredibly broad definition of folk music!

You probably know more than I do. I was mostly just in the Hudson River crowd. I never had a record player, so never listened to recorded music, just occasionally went down to Greenwich Village but mostly hung around with Pete Seegers and other New England folk singers. I was heavily into folk dance (was Squire of a morris dance team for a number of years) and went to a lot of the folk festivals, and got into folk music by the back door that way. Used to stop by Andy's Front Hall from time to time. Of the names you mention, Derek Bok was the only one I ever played with, and then only once, at one of the Niskyuna (spelling? It's been a few years!) folk festivals where I was performing with the team.
