EP2 - From West Hollywood's Troubadour to Toronto's Yorkville and The Sparrows

It's 1964, I'm playing "The New Balladeer" in West LA with Taj Mahal, David Crosby & others, At "The Troubadour" in West Hollywood I learn "The Pusher" from Hoyt Axton, see the great "T-bone Walker" and meet "Mr Tambourine Man". After hitchhiking from LA to Toronto I wind up playing "The Half Beat", one of 17 clubs in Yorkville Village, and there jam with "The Sparrows". I hitch to the Newport Folk Festival in Rode Island, see Bob Dylan go electric, get a ride to NY and play a basket joint in Manhattan's Greenwich Village, where I hear Woody Allan muttering to himself. After returning to Toronto I join "The Sparrows", we kill in Waterloo and we get a record deal with......Continued in EP3......Stay with me. JK
