Mike Seeger: updates

Thanks to FOAOTMAD for the information that there is an appreciation of Mike Seeger on the NPR Music website, where with the right connections you can hear several samples of his music; the New York Times obituary is here; and many splendid recent photos by Mike Melnyk, some of which include John Cohen and Tracy Schwarz, can be seen here.

Update 27 August: Thanks to the Bluegrass Blog for three items posted yesterday (26 August) on Mike Seeger, including an appreciation on the Smithsonian Folkways website, and news of releases on DVD of the film Always been a rambler on the massively influential New Lost City Ramblers, and on a three-CD set of NLCR recordings over fifty years.
