Illustrated Patrick Sky discography (original) (raw)
"In twenty years or so I suppose they'll be separating the sheep from the goats in the current folk 'thing'.
It's a safe bet that Patrick Sky will not be among the goats, despite his cloven hooves."
'famous sayn' of Dave van Ronk & Terri in their 1965 liner notes to 'Patrick Sky'
