He comes to Maine every couple of years, so we saw him in Bangor.  
Tickets typically go on sale 8 months or so ahead of time and sell out  
in a couple of days, so you do have to be on the ball to get tickets.



Dave Mallett is one of my very favorite folk-type singers, he has
about 3 albums but none of them really sound as good as he does live.
My favorite song of his, also much better as a live version is,
Summer of My Dreams.


Yes, I agree, he is much better live. He has a live version of Summer  
of My Dreams which is excellent. It is on Live at the Iron Horse,  
Vol. 1 and you can get at on the iTunes store for 99 cents.


I also just uploaded another song from PHC, his classic The Garden  
Song. Enjoy.



PS: Good luck with your book! What a great idea.

Did you ever listen to FolkAlley.com? It's a great source of free and
great music as in 24/7 at http://folkalley.com. It's where I was
introduced to Dave Mallett a couple of years ago. 

Thanks for the free Dave Mallett tunes, too and the itunes tip. I'm
reluctant to get involved with downloading from itunes but maybe...!

 Just recently went to see A Prairie Home Companion and Maine's  
 favorite folk singer-songwriter Dave Mallett did a couple of great  
 songs. I was able to get good recording off the NPR website and made  
 two songs up for a DVD. For those who enjoy folk music, here are two  
 of those songs, Angel Standing By and a song from Thoreau's first  
 trip to the Katahdin wilderness called Fishing.
