Really sad to hear about this one==one of the earliest musical political saturists I had the pleasure of hearing. Even on albums I heard much later than when he released them, and some of the topics were no longer current, they stlll sounded great.

RIP, Tom.

Sad to hear. She had a personal music connection. She was married at the time of her death to Bob Flick, the mainstay of the folk group The Brothers Four, which has been making music for over 60 years. Loni said in an interview a little while back that he was her first love. They met when she was in high school and Bob was in his mid-20s, so her parents put the kibosh on that. Many years later, they reconnected and got married.
