Jack Williams

This will be a little different. We are doing it on a Thursday night because that is the only day Jack has this NE trip. It will be his last and I wanted to get to say goodbye. Jack was one of the first people to play this series 28 years ago. Please give him a good sendoff

“…Perhaps even more exciting than seeing Bob Dylan, though, was the reaction that Jack Williams got. ..He practically blew the top off the tent! Man, oh man, can that guy play guitar! He completely overshadowed more well-known performers…They were wonderful, but Jack Williams was playing in an entirely different league. I was astounded by how good he is.”
Mark Cashman, upon hearing Jack for the first time at the Newport Folk Festival.

“Jack is the best guitar-player I’ve ever heard.”
Peter Yarrow (of Peter, Paul & Mary)
