my fav folk artist, same nearly the same age as me and we sort of went through the stages of life in parallel. Amazing writer ...he was called "the folksingers folksinger".

Amazon gave me three free months of unlimited and using them to access his albums....for reasons unknown Alexa cannot connect with him when I ask but I can get the music in the app. \ :banghead:
