content: CDR copy FW-ASCH-7RR-4036 is Workshop 7, reel no. 1, recorded 6/30/1962. The Workshop is entitled: The City Folksinger - Where Does He Start? The moderator is Merritt Herring. Participants include Dr. Charles Seeger, Andrew Rowan Summers, Jean Redpath, and John Cohen. Andrew Rowan Summers presents an extended and interesting narrative about his early years in Virginia and how he experienced and began performing folk music. Jean Redpath also describes her early years in relation to music. Dr. Charles Seeger, father of Pete Seeger, asks pertinent questions and provides some commentary. Tape box indicates "Sam" (presumably Sam Hinton, who is on other tapes at the Festival) is present, but, if so, I don't know that he speaks. There are no musical examples or excerpts presented on this tape.
