estreeterAfter reading this, I miss him more than ever estreeter4life This is an exhaustively researched, passionately written biography of one of folk music's real treasures. The range of people interviewed, from playground pals to "really famous big time musicians" is huge, and the message is consistent--great talent, great sense of humor, great love of life, great man. I'll never forget any of the times I saw him; the last time, when his health was clearly fading and he was sharing a bill with John Prine came back to me like a film. Thank you for writing this book, thank you for keep. life said After reading this, I miss him more than ever.

This biography is a remarkable achievement. Eals synthesizes a massive amount of material to construct not only a life but an era. It should be of interest to anyone moved by a period when folk music no longer meant either "like the hillbillies played" or "I Ain't Marchin' Anymore," but resisted in a different way the blandishments and selfishness of mainstream popular culture, with songs about old-fashioned girls and vegematics, Spoon River and A Remarkable Achievement David I.
