Still working on Maggie's Farm

Listening to Maggie's Farm at the '65 Newport Folk Festival this evening...

Madame Cura: Do you think Maggie's Pa is Dick Cheney?
Whoa, shit, Mike Bloomfield slashed out a guitar solo that, quite literally, just curled my toes. Can't imagine what it must have sounded like to 1965 folkie ears. No wonder Pete Seeger tried to take an axe to the power cables.

The Vega: Impossible! But...now that you mention it, Maggie's Ma is, clearly, Lynn.
