I'm also a big JD fan. I was introduced to his music by

my first female friend and first real romantic interest

(not that I knew what to do about a romantic interest at

age 16), a down-home West Virginia girl from a large

family (who went on to get degrees from Princeton and

Stanford and now is a professor at a Big Ten University!).

I have almost all his original albums (I mostly ignore the

compliations that have come out since his death), and

like some of his songs a lot, some less so. At the fifth

anniversary of his death, I led a service called " The Truth

of the Song " about JD at my Unitarian-Universalist church.

He was a poet, activist, amateur astronomer, and basically

good guy.

Recently I've become somewhat (or maybe more than somewhat) obsessed with young

classical violinist Hahn, who is now my first " favorite living musician "

since JD went and flew his plane after quaffing a few too many.
