In case anybody wonders -- he's my uncle. But I don't benefit financially from his recordings, and I really don't think there's any doubt he's a big enough figure to deserve inclusion here.

Can anybody confirm that The Asch Recordings, 1939 to 1945 - Vol. 2 actually contains anything of Dick's? The listings I've found online so far seem to list it as entirely Woody Guthrie content. Dd-b (talk) 01:13, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. It's a little confusing because there are two Folkways releases called "The Asch Recordings, Volume 2". One, as you say, is a Woody Guthrie collection; the other is collection of various Asch recordings, one of which is Dyer-Bennet singing "Two Maidens Went Milking One Day". You can see the details here. --Camembert (talk) 00:21, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Is That All There Is?[edit]

Can no one add to this pitiful biography of one of the great folk singers of the 20th century? 68.104.199.181 (talk) 00:07, 25 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Exactly. I'm looking right now at a free image of him performing in the early 1960s (published at the time without a copyright notice), not terribly high-res, but it shows him performing. As I'm reading a "biography" consisting of half-assed, half-random statements seemingly slapped together, it's probably not worth the bother to scan it and therefore provide more fodder for the puffery corps lurking about on here. Feel free to let me know if you believe I'm in the wrong. RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 04:20, 30 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
