Cafe Vaquera with Calamity Jane


March 30, 2010. Jeffrey Frederick would have been 60 today, if he was still amongst the living. He lives on, of course, through his great songs and restored recordings put together by Kathryn Frederick, his widow, and Frederick Productions.

Tonight we shall celebrate Jeffrey's 60th with a Cafe Vaquera Dance Party! Roll up the rug! Fill up the jug!


Here's a cool photo of Jeffrey and Corky! RIP both of you talented gentlemen.
