Tom started performing in Greenwich Village in 1960, and his songs were recorded by other people at first (such as "Marvelous Toy", "Going to the Zoo", "Hold On To Me Babe" and "I Can’t Help But Wonder Where I’m Bound"). He made his first album in 1965, the first of seven for Elektra. Some of his most enduring songs are "Last Thing On My Mind", "What Did You Learn in School Today?", "Bottle of Wine", "Did You Know John Hurt?" and "Ramblin’ Boy". His topical songs (criticizing the government, the Vietnam war, war in general, etc.) are particularly well-written. He has always been very popular in England and said that his British career was ahead of his American one. | |

Paul
Prestopino |
|
Paul Prestopino has been playing music almost
all his life, there exists a home recording of him at age 3, sitting at the
piano and singing "What Shall We Do With the Drunken Sailor" while playing an
honest-to-goodness minor chord as accompaniment. He got a harmonica at age 4, a
guitar at age 9, a banjo at 11; and a mandolin, Dobro, recorder, tenor banjo,
electric bass, electric lap steel, etc., have been added as they became needed.
Originally headed in the direction of Physics, or the accompanying technology,
he suddenly found himself snatched from his job at the University of Wisconsin's
High Energy Physics Lab by an offer from the Chad
Mitchell Trio. This was around 1961, and, seven years later, when the group
disbanded, he fell into the recording business; the logical confluence of his
technical and musical interests. Today he is the technical third of the
three-man team aboard the award-winning Record Plant Remote truck, a lot of
which he designed and built. He continues to play music, both
professionally and avocationally, and particularly enjoys playing for Contra and
English Country dances. He has been a member of the dance band Hold The Mustard
since before it even had a name, and has performed and recorded with numerous
folk and pop artists. With (Chad) Mitchell Trio on their albums
