And he told me... I didn't know nothing about how to play no guitar at all. He said "Hey, go home. Take my advice. You go home. You get that.. straight. You know what I'm talking about? Put that pick down. You think I'm scolding you? You a grown man, Hubert - listen to me!" I went home, man. I went to my basement. And I'm going to tell you something...

Thanks for the link Stuart. I just received an email from Smithsonian Folkways sharing the news of the Folk-Legacy acquisition and was planning on posting this link to the Folkway's site with more info:
https://folkways.si.edu/folk-legacy

I've got a few great Folk-Legacy LPs in my collection and am very glad their "legacy" is in the hands of Folkways.

Thank you, Lew. I probably should have posted it as well and saved you the trouble as I also received the S-F email this morning. I agree than Folk-Legacy released many quality recordings. I'm glad that they are going to be added to the S-F catalog and made available.
