John Denver???

Husband saw Hendrix and Cream live. I was a little bit younger so missed those
concerts. The guy from Yes has played a harp built by my husband. His name is
Jon Anderson.

So, Barb, did they pass you a joint? I just have to mention this because we
were passed one at the Dylan concert. Husband saw all the big bands and Dylan
just floored him more than anyone. He will be on 60 Minutes tomorrow.

I really love Taj. So many blues guys to like.
