    staxman says Check out "The Mayor of Macdougal Street: A Memoir". It was released this year and is a quick, entertaining read on Van Ronk and the Village folk scene.

    fairportfan says *staxman says:* Check out The Mayor of Macdougal Street: A Memoir. It was released this year and is a quick, entertaining read on Van Ronk and the Village folk scene. Haven't got it yet, but i plan to. Part of the online research i've been doing is "*an good-size piece*":V by his collaborator on the book, Eijah Waldwho says, among other things:
    (As a companion to the book, Rootstock records is putting out "*a collection of previously unreleased recordings*":http://www.elijahwald.com/music.html#DVRcd made by Dave in concerts, living rooms, and studios during the fifties and sixties. It includes a cappella ballads, blues, jazz, rock, and even some Troskyist bluegrass.)
