My dad was a nightime bartender, and whenever I could I would stay awake until he came home, usually around 2 AM. He would say: " You shouldn't be up this late!!!!". If it wasn't a night before school, he would let me stay, and we'd sit at the kitchen table together. He liked to listen to the radio then, and sometimes read the newspaper, or we'd chat. We both enjoyed those times together, and he even remembered them when he was in his 80s and starting to lose his memory. RiP, Dad.

-I was fortunate to be a child of the 1950s-'60s, growing up in a very small rail town. I fell in love with Joan Baez and Peter, Paul and Mary at about 12 then later came the folk-rock era with The Byrds, Arlo Guthrie, Simon and Garfunkel, and those that followed. In 1974, while living in Spokane WA, I was again fortunate to volunteer in the Folklife of Expo '74, meeting the likes of Utah Phillips, Rosalie Sorrells, Bodie Wagner, Kenny Hall, Pop Wagner, and so many others. I have since really listened to Pete Seeger, Woody Guthrie, Cisco Huston and those who sang and played when our parents were young. All of these people and events shaped me into the person I am today, so much more aware and a bit cynical of the world. I have been so lucky. Now, pushing 70, I look back and sigh. What is next and what will the future generations be listening to? Will they appreciate what came before them or will our musical history be lost until someone unearths it again? Just like I did yesterday when I stumbled across a little known show, Rainbow Quest hosted by Pete Seeger in the mid-1960s. What a gem!

In a snowy night when i was just 5 years old i sat by the door waiting for my father come home from the company he worked for 41 years. It took couple of hours until my father showed up from working all day, six days a week. I saw his massive image behind the door as he put his key in the key hole and open the door. i was so excited to see him, as i was every night. As he open the metal door i could see outside was snowing massively, and since my father had to walk a long way from the bus stop to our little house, so he was covered in snow. His hat had turned into snowy white hat, as was his mustache and bushy eyebrows. I ran to him as he entered. He hugged and kissed me with his usual big smily face. Then he put me down and took off his hat and snowy overcoat, as shaking the snow off if them, and haning them on the green metal coat hanger by the door. He lock the door three times, and took his shoes off and put on his slippers and went to the bedroom to change. Later in the kitchen while he was eating his supper alone with me sitting next to him and while watching him how hungrily he ate his food i asked him why should he go to work? why can't he be home all the time? He chuckled a little behind his thick glasses and put me on his lap and told me something i never forget, "My son, we live among people and do what people do. All fathers have to go to work, and so do i. And since all kids go to school, next year you go to school too." That night I went to bed in the same bedroom as my other 3 brothers were sleeping, and I wished to myself people would stop expecting my father to go to work. But he worked all the way to the last month of his life when he died of a heart attack in sleep. To this day every time it snows hard at night, i still sit in the chair near the entrance door, and i still hope my father would show up covered with snow, the snow of happiness. (To all the working class fathers and families who live by the warmth of hope of a better future for their children.)

And we're going to miss Pete and Leonard and Woody, and rest of them. This next battle for civil rights and freedom and the dignity of all people is going to be a much tougher battle.

Still fabulous stuff after two generations. Brilliant! Timeless. Wonderful to listen to, play and sing even for those of us in our seventies and eighties. Will this music be rediscovered?

What a wonderful recollection and so exquisitely told. I’m sure you had many of us thinking of our own dear, hardworking Dads, God bless them, every one. Thanks for sharing this with us.

Men like Leonard Cohn may write great songs but women like Julie sing those songs so beautifully.

Like listening to a time capsule with changes only of mode of expressions, the human story, the longing for love is the same as it ever was - beautiful.

Thank you so much for posting this!! Many of my favorites, all in one place. It's also fun to see them all so young, and realize that I was young then too.

Thank you! This brought back great memories of my late 20's when we thought we could bring peace and unity. Instead we've had 2020. Hope this election brings hope to heal the divisions in our beautiful country.

Joan Baez has the most beautiful voice. I could care less about her politics. I listen to her to hear her beautiful voice.

💙🦋💙Judy Collins’ song “Hey Nellie Nellie” ends in 1962 with people of color walking together with white people - for human rights. Today 8-25-20 people are again marching for human rights - declaring once again Black Lives Matter. A day ago another Black Man was shot in the back by police men who were hired “to serve the people”. Blowin in the Wind are Human Rights for ALL and A Change is A-Coming, With This Generation.💙🙏💙💙🌎💙🌏💙🌍💙ThankYou for This Memory of Our History💙🗽💙😷💙CompassionateCaring=😷🦋Black Lives Matter🦋💙🗽💙😷

Maybe "Hey, Nellie, Nellie" needs another verse?
