Lindsay alerts us to the death of Utah Phillips. Not a great singer, but a great story-teller, and a repository of a quirky part of American labor history. He'll be missed.

Lindsay Beyerstein, aka Majikthise, needs and deserves your help.
Please take a moment to head over to Majikthise and pay your respects to Lindsay, whose father, Barry L. Beyerstein, died yesterday.
I find it very difficult to say something nice, deep, profound or meaningful at the time of sorrow. But I am deeply saddened by the news that Lindsay Beyerstein's father has died.
Maybe not the greatest singing voice, but a marvelous entertainer-cum-teacher, a very good songwriter, and a most excellent human being. I've known Utah since 1971, and he has always been one of my most admired friends.
