Utah Phillips, 1935-2008new
The singer, songwriter, activist, historian, storyteller and railroad tramp died last month at his home in Nevada City, Calif. Though he spent a lifetime imparting stories, songs and poems to the multitudes that came to hear him play, he took with him all the bits that never got written down -- what he referred to as "the long memory."
