Richard Johnston had emailed or posted on his website about Jessie Mae Hemphill being evicted from her trailer in Senatobia MS. I contacted Richard about doing a benefit show in Hudson WI. I bought his plane ticket and he came up and did a concert for our neighborhood and we raised several thousand dollars for Jessie Mae. There's much more to that story, and I'll write more about it with the September 2005 recordings.
Waverly Milor sits on on harp for a few songs late in the evening. It's a long show, with a couple set breaks.
