  • Rest in peace, Mike.

  • Mike Seeger was the most important teacher of old time American folk music that ever has been. Some may say Lomax but Mike operated with heart and soul and there was no better person and he just taugh us all without academic pretensions. Damn I miss him. Hope you're kicking up your feet Mike, don't let anybody say RIP.

  • this song makes me sleepy

  • @johnorford1931 Old black folks often can be remarkably tight-lipped about themselves. What you say could still be true, but isn't at all necessarily the reason it took them years to learn she was a player--and a REAL player, at that.

  • Such simple beauty

  • Interesting that the Seegers took five years to find out that Elizabeth Cotten had once played the guitar - they couldn't have talked much to her.

  • @dasilvaec

    They are singing I can see their lips move.. Those folks are great audience they sing but try not to interrupt the artist.RIP Mike

  • R.I.P. Mike Give a listen to " Music From The True Vine" It sure was!

  • i agree with you. i love my metal. but this stuff is perfect on those 'off' days :)

  • What a shame that no one in the audience sang the song with him, I would have. Those folks missed out on a superb opportunity. RIP Mike
