[Magdalen] RIP Fred Hellerman, 89.

I remember mentioning the Leadbelly Smithsonian Folkways Collection a while back.  Haven't finished listening to it, but it comes in a huge book, with a lot of information, including the only color photograph of Huddie.

Jim, is that to what you refer?  I think possibly not, because "Collection" implies, and definitely is, merely a compilation.

I also have the "Last Sessions" set (as well as one of the original LP volumes that comprised it), and consider it priceless.
