Who has a spare two minutes to play in this month's FG Trivia game! ... My other OS is Slackware.

As you say, not a rocker - but well known in folk circles.
A sad loss.

I still have the humblebums on tape and city to city would be another I would consider buying anew. He and billy connoly are two I can say I saw before they were famous.
