Tom Hobson earned his place in history and certainly deserves a book on his life, don't know if that will ever happen so these web pages ( www.tomhobson.com ) represent my best efforts to capture his legacy in a forum that hopes to comfort those who knew him well and paint a picture of his life for those who want to know more about the legendary Tom Hobson. Tom was an under-recorded artist considering his vast repertoire of over 500 songs and only two albums that were ever released. (Special thanks to Jorma Kaukonen for re-issuing Quah! with 2 more tracks of Tom!)
