  • For almost 50 years, my top two all-time favorite artists are Oscar Brown, Jr. and Dave Van Ronk...lots of others are close, but these two remain tops. I have been singing Signifyin' since I was in junior high school. Love your interpretation.

  • Hey, Hawkeye....An old friend of mine recited this to me 20 or so yrs ago after doing time in the Pen in SantaFe. I have long since tried to find someone else that knew of it, but no one knew what I was talking about. Your rendition makes me smile. Thank you very much for sharing it!!!!!
