This is my live version of the Tom Paxton song, recorded at my CD release concert at the RedHouse Theatre in Syracuse, NY, in Sept. 2004. That's Henry Jankiewicz on the fiddle.

A video I shot and edited - of one of my favorite songs by the very talented Dana "Short Order" Cooke. We shot this whole thing in about 2 and a half hours, back in 1997. I'm glad I got this one out of the archives.

This is my version of the Hank Williams tune, recorded at the RedHouse Theatre in Syracuse, NY, in Sept. 2004. This performance felt like it belonged in black & white. Despite my screwing up the lyrics a bit, Henry Jankiewicz's fiddle playing saves the day.

Here's the opening number from fiddler Elana James, along with guitarist Whit Smith and bassist Jake Erwin, at the Persian Terrace of the Hotel Syracuse, 1/17/08. Introducing Elana is the show's promoter, Tom Honan.

The duo, Beaucoup Blue, recorded at the WAER studios, Syracuse, NY, for a live broadcast of the folk radio show, Common Threads. Audio and video recorded by Larry Hoyt, host of Common Threads.
The group Diamond Someday performing the Utah Phillips song, "Orphan Train." This black & white version is edited together from 3 different cameras. A color-corrected version in color may appear some day, but for now, I really like the black & white. Comments welcomed. Video shot by Pam Proctor and Larry Hoyt.
Here's Victoria Vox performing her original song, "Christmas with You," by request, at a 2 AM showcase at the recent NorthEast Regional Folk Alliance (NERFA) conference (11/11/07). Please forgive the poor quality of the video image, and the sound could be better, but this is such a sweet, pretty, appealing song.
