    Words fail me; the man is an icon, his spirit shines through his songs - he CARES and it shows. Remarkably talented and generous with his gift, I love him best of all.

    The Lion's Head was a very special comfortable place. I lived on Christopher St and would stop in on my way home. Later I spent more time at the end of the bar by the window reading the paper seeing my friend Tania Grossinger there. Wes and Judy Joice our host and hostess were special people. All the patrons got together and paid off the tax debt to keep it open-

    Tom Paxton not only wrote beautiful music but his lyrics are so evocative and clever, and both music and lyrics so memorable

    This is a touching tribute from a towering presence of the American folk scene to the giants of our folk heritage.

    A long way from Tom and Liam am I geographically . In my heart and soul I would be in the first row . As I have been for decades and longer soaking up the air of my awakening to beautiful imagery and sweet guitar notes . A balm to my soul , over these many years , they have given me many times over . RIP Liam . Peter behind my Judy . The journey is not over until it's over .

    Bonjour Yves. Oui, je très beaucoup comme cette chanson par Tom Paxton. L'événement était un hommage à Liam Clancy du groupe des gens réputé les Frères Clancy de l'Irlande. Il a été tenu dans un club de gens appelé la Fin Amère à New York. Liam, la dernière vie des frères, devait mourir en Irlande il y a moins d'une année plus tard.

      Jan , thanks for posting . I got to sing harmony on this song with Tom in a concert at Swallow Hill in Denver a while back. We were amigos in the early 1960s Village scene. Here's a link to a song I wrote about a mutual friend of ours, Dave Van Ronk. I hope you enjoy this reminiscence. ua-cam.com/video/n5iD-xTagb0/v-deo.html

      Bonjour Yves, je suis heureux de communiquer avec vous à nouveau. Je dois vous dire que, bien que j'ai étudié le français au lycée, j'utilise des logiciels de traduction de Microsoft afin de vous écrire en anglais. Mon adresse email est (janhammer@bresnan.net). Quant à nos ancêtres de Basque, ils étaient un peuple antique et un peu mystérieux. Berenquela de Castille (1180-1198) est mon arrière-grand-mère 21e. J'ai essayé de trouver les accords pour la chanson vous a demandé, mais a été incapable de le faire. J'ai hâte d'entendre de vous bientôt. Votre ami, Jan Hammer
