He merited mention

I very much enjoyed the recent pieces about Stone County, Mountain View and the Folk Festival.

I do regret, however, that no mention was made of John Quincy Wolf Jr., a professor of English at both then-Arkansas College in Batesville and Southwestern at Memphis. Dr. Wolf traveled the Ozarks with his tape recorder “discovering” the musicians of the area, and bringing them to light. It is my recollection that he found Jimmy Driftwood well before Chet Atkins did.
