"at the home of The Morris Brothers (Salty Dog Blues), in Carmel, NY" Where in Carmel? At John Cohen's place? I lived in Carmel for 18 years and know a good number of musicians from old timey to bluegrass to folk but I never knew about a connection with the Morris Brothers.
I do not understand your comment. The Morris brothers live in North Carolina and always have. They have nothing to do with Carmel New York. David Hoffman-filmmaker
Yes, my mistake. re-reading your notes, the Morris Bros came right before Bob Dylan with the reference to Carmel. So then, my question shifts from the Morris Bors to Bob Dylan, who I know has visited Carmel a long time ago. Was he filmed at John Cohen's place? Thanks.
I understand your question. My recollection is that we filmed Bob in Carmel at his place. Did he not have long back in 1971-72? it was certainly not the most successful season in the film. Bob refused to look directly at the camera. And we only recorded one song and then he said he had to go. After traveling all the way from Nashville for the recording. The recording is a classic one for sure. David Hoffman-filmmaker
David, it wasn't Dylan's home but Tom Allen's home, an elder relative to current friends of mine. There was back in the day, as there is today, a pocket of traditional musicians and back-to-the-land hippies living in Putnam County, mostly centered around Peekskill Hollow Road which runs between the towns of Carmel and Putnam Valley.
@@DavidHoffmanFilmmaker Hi, you filmed this too ? I should have known. We’ve watched this for years , off and on. Finally paid attention and saw the credits. Thanks again... Thanks a million.
