    A true American storyteller. A minstrel with a guitar voice that is hunting and uniquely original. I am so sorry I never discover Dave until recently. He is one to be cherished as an American hero.
    God bless this man.

      I'm right with you on that one, Earl! I was an early Blasters Fan, then a Solo Dave Fan, but somehow I missed this one and only heard it about a year ago. One for the ages.

    I've been a huge Fan since his day's with brother Phil & Kate Wolf. IF you're a woman driving down the countryside of California
    listening to Dave will truly make you never forget it!!!
    With Love and admiration Thanks to Dave for making my life in California a festival of songs.

    I have this DVD and remember being so effin' pissed off that I didn't know about this show... i'd have flown out from San Jose, CA in a heartbeat. I'd been up and down the western coast catching Knitters gigs, often time luggin' this man's equipment to/from the van.

    Dave's words capture life seen and experienced. Authentic tone is in each unique story. A real American Treasure and damn nice guy. I know, I've had the chance to meet him in the Blasters 35 years ago and on his own 18 years ago. Same Guy, different band.
