"He's playing "Buddy Bolden's Blues" and it is quite awesome, in the Jelly Roll Morten sense.

Joan Baez gave him a really good guitar one time in the early sixties. He was called the Mayor of McDougal Street.

Joyce and I saw him at an evening of stories and song.. That was a couple of months before he died.

It was mostly stories and I enjoyed those more than the singing.
