It was the first time I heard of you, but you 'bout knocked my socks off with that song. On the vote line I voted "LOVE IT" (3 times). I am currently writing a short story about my family history in the mines of PA. Hope to hear much more of you & your music. I love the "old time mountain music & mining songs." Thanks, Jed XM Bluegrass/www Listener/Fan Tuesday, January 22nd 2008 - 11:31:06 AM Arjen and Bethany [e-mail address] We first heard you play and sing here in the Netherlands this past summer. We loved it. At least there are some out there keeping the music alive. THANK you Listener/Fan Thursday, December 13th 2007 - 03:07:52 PM Howard [e-mail address] THANKS! Louis Harrells grandson Andy Listener/Fan Monday, October 29th 2007 - 02:19:22 PM Landon Medley [e-mail address] Somewhere in the hollow the music is still playing, and the mountains are still singing. Keep safe Si. Listener/Fan Friday, October 19th 2007 - 08:39:27 PM howard bryant [e-mail address] Thanks. I was doing some research on my grandfather (louis Harrell) when i came across your work. Listener/Fan Saturday, October 13th 2007 - 02:28:34 PM K. Nicole Brown [e-mail address] I enjoyed reviewing your site. Through doing a class project about pioneers in the social work community I have learned there is more to social work than what the eye may see. Thank you for the eye opener. Media Tuesday, October 2nd 2007 - 10:08:08 PM Ellen Hoadley [e-mail address] Hey, Si. I met you at Peace Camp in Berea, KY this July. Thanks for sharing. Upon returning to my office, I found a copy of Transforming Knowledge, by E.K.Minnich on my shelf. What a tapestry we weave. Best wishes. Listener/Fan Thursday, August 30th 2007 - 12:54:14 PM John Anthony [e-mail address] Si, Had not heard of you or your music before hearing Roy Bailey perform your song "What you do with what you've got" at the Trowbridge Festival here in the UK last Sunday. Few lyrics have the ability to move people emotionally, that one did; thank you for writing it. Listener/Fan Tuesday, July 24th 2007 - 08:52:55 AM Bob Littmann [e-mail address] I'm a social worker, social work educator and musician. I'm glad to find your site and will be visiting my son who is moving to Charlotte in late July. Will you be performing in the area? WNKU Listener/Fan Tuesday, June 26th 2007 - 10:05:19 PM Gerry (Gary) Davidson [e-mail address] By the way, Boozy Creek String Band is playing for the Charlotte Fold Society's "Music In The Park" on Sept. 21st. If you're in town, stop by and play one with us. Keep writing, playing, and singing. Listener/Fan Sunday, April 29th 2007 - 06:11:14 AM Gerry (Gary) Davidson [e-mail address] Si, Hope you got a chance to listen to the Boozy Creek String Band CD I gave you and I hope there was something on it you liked. We are playing on Sept 21st at the Charlotte Folk Society's "Music In The Park". If you're in town, stop by and play one with us. We would be honored. Thanks again for all your great music. Listener/Fan Saturday, April 28th 2007 - 08:45:18 PM Gerry (Gary) Davidson [e-mail address] It was an honor and privilege playing and singing with you last week at the Carter Family Fold. I have been a die-hard fan since I first heard your music in the late 70's. Your songs mean more to me than you will ever know. Keep up the good work and know that there are many of us who draw strength from your music every day. Media Saturday, April 28th 2007 - 08:22:20 PM David Johnson [e-mail address] [home page] Happy birthday, Si. I turned 61 a month ago, so I am a little ahead of you. When I was a folk show host in State College, I played Luray Women and Aragon Mill over WPSU-FM. I wish you a pleasant and productive next decade followed by many more. WJAS Songwriter Monday, April 2nd 2007 - 01:12:57 AM Mr. Pudd [e-mail address] I honestly think you suck. No offense, but you suck. DJ Saturday, February 3rd 2007 - 06:22:41 PM John Tully [e-mail address] I was strumming away at my guitar just now and a half-forgotten song drifted into my mind: Andy Irvine's version of your 'Aragon Mill'. A powerful song. I checked up on the email and there was the website of a person after my own heart: union songs, civil rights songs, songs of hope and peace and justice. I also liked listening to your song, 'When the war was done' and will get hold of some of your music. I'll be at a big union rally in Melbourne tomorrow, called in protest against the repressive anti-union laws of our awful government. Wish us luck because we need it! Listener/Fan Wednesday, November 29th 2006 - 12:09:05 AM Kevin Macero [e-mail address] Definitely like the sound. Even though they're differenet genres, i kind of think of that nyc band hunting bigfoot. there's a paul rowan - johnny rolfe thing going there. if you think i'm crazy then go to http://www.huntingbigfoot.com then tell me otherwise. I'm looking forward to hearing more. Listener/Fan Monday, November 6th 2006 - 02:24:49 AM john kidd [e-mail address] we met you at the Beverly folk festival and listened to your music and lyrics with great empathy. enjoyed your workshop with john tamms,chumbawamba etc. Hope to seeyou soon in the u.k.

Thanks also for brightening the day with an evening of song and especailly for "Truck Drivin' Woman"! Strength for the journey! WGBH, WUMB Listener/Fan Wednesday, June 28th 2006 - 12:03:50 PM Sandy Bauer [e-mail address] We miss you. It's been 9 long years since your last appearance at the Vancouver Folk Fest. Thrilled to see your book "How Privatization Threatens Democracy". I left Brooklyn NY in 75. Now it saddens & frightens me to see Canada heading down the same ideological road as the US Listener/Fan Friday, April 14th 2006 - 02:48:44 PM chad [e-mail address] [home page] Happy birthday Kahn! I was introduced to your music by a local musician and the more I hear the more I am inspired to sing songs that work to make positive change in the world. Thanks Man! Songwriter Tuesday, April 4th 2006 - 02:28:43 PM Linda Fortney Si, It's people like you who keep on working for civil rights, worker's rights and singing about them who give me hope that perhaps justice can be done. I lived in North Carolina for fifteen years, and I understand Aragon Mills are closing all over the state as the greedy ship the jobs to China where they can underpay desperate people and in some cases work them to death. Your music gives me hope. Listener/Fan Monday, March 27th 2006 - 05:47:48 PM Willem Noordstrand [e-mail address] Hallo Si, thanks for your gig in AMEN, it was wonderful and a goodfeeling for the heart and the soul to see, hear and met you. Thanks and hopefuly see you an other time. WAD lopen a wonderful and good song!!! Regards, Willem and Maria Noordstrand. Listener/Fan Thursday, January 26th 2006 - 05:44:20 AM Julian Kernes [e-mail address] As far as the guy who thinks socialism is slavery, he doesn't know history. It's Feudal Lords that are the older version of corporate boards who owned everything and the commoners work for them as slaves or indentured servants if their own businesses failed. Private orporations should not dominate because we have no control of what they and we don't elect them or impeach them. Government should not be dominent either because as in the past kings and princes and dictators issued decrees and executive orders claiming they are representatives of God. The result was people suffered. Our constitution with written rights, checks and balances and voting rights, representives of the people are there to regulate those that govern and government regulates private industry so no one is abused in theory. It not perfect, but a more informed electorate should help keep power between private and public from going too far inot a wealthy feudal lord or corporate fascistic rule or too far to a government dictatorship. Listener/Fan Wednesday, December 21st 2005 - 07:03:39 PM Jay [e-mail address] [home page] End the slavery of socialism! Keep government out of my life and my bank account. I'd much rather see things run by private business than the government Media Monday, December 12th 2005 - 10:47:17 AM Beth Pollhammer [e-mail address] Si, Is that your song "Riding in the Car, Car" that I hear on the automobile ad(maybe for Nissan)? I sure hope so, and I hope you get Rich Rich from it. Long time no see. I am still in Harrisburg, and still sometimes singing the Blues!

"We're Still Here" contains captivating songs, and particularly appropriate to today's events is "When the War Is Over." I look forward to your appearance on Nov. 5 at People's Voice Cafe.

Easy to see, after hearing just a fraction of your set at the Florida Folk Festival on Friday, why you're as successful as you are. Unnecessary to wish you continued success, but I do anyhow.

So much in so few words. In return, I gave you a CD of homemade songs at the birthday concert in DC.

Media Thursday, May 12th 2005 - 08:38:14 PM Bill S [e-mail address] Hi Si! I had the pleasure of hearing you at the Pit at Merlefest last weekend. There are a lot of performers I like, but most are enjoyable at a surface level. There are very few that can make me laugh and cry. In fact, at the moment I can think of only two, Fred Eaglesmith and you. You bring humanity, something we need more of. Best wishes!

I asked if you knew my friends Bo and Sita Lozoff of Human Kindness Foundation in Durham, NC - they have a website - check them out. They work with prisoners. I was intrigued about your 60th birthday CD that I saw on your website. My friend and I were celebrating our 60th at NERFA. Think you're terrific.
