Corner Of One Way And One Way

Bob Dylan performed a short set of Woody Guthrie songs at Cafe Wha? on his very first day in New York City (January 1961) and during the following weeks.

 

"I used to play in a a place called Cafe Wha?, and it always used to open at noon, and closed at six in the morning. It was just a non-stop flow of people, usually they were tourists who were looking for beatniks in the Village. There'd be maybe five groups that played there. I used to play with a guy called Fred Neil, who wrote the song "Everybody's Talking" that was in the film "Midnight Cowboy."
