  1. Can't say he was a personal favorite. More into Woody and Leadbelly for prol/pop anthems and Dylan for naked 60s angst. Still, he did more to keep White, roots folk alive throughout nearly a century of threatening extinction than any other single person. He must also be admired, like him or not, for never backing down an inch from his core beliefs in nonviolent, socialist, pacifist political dissent. There is no one left living to even begin to take his place. A politician with no party. A soldier with no weapon. A profit with no God.

    His name is now inscribed indelibly on the blacklist in the great beyond.
