Yes! He even sang a little. Unfortunately there was no programs, so I
didn't find out who the rest of the band was but that was *definitely*
Lenny Kaye!

Sadly no ... he played a lot of old favourites, though - songs I was
brought up on. The Times They Are A-Changing of course, and Rainy Day Women
#14 and 25. His band was really tight, although it would have been nice if
he'd talked to the audience a little more. His talking voice is so great -
he calls a guitar a gee-tar (:

I would love to ... but I've never been able to get my hands on this story!
Of the Uncollected Stories I've only yet been able to trawl The Inverted
Forest and Hapworth 16, although I've heard precis on most of the others -
as well as the fact that the Varioni Brothers are, as you say, early
Seymour and Buddy (dead genius' work is completed by surviving brother !?)
I'll sure be interested about what you have to say about it though.
