Harper, Roy
I'm Not Gone Yet
"Im a musical dinosaur." Thats one of the ways Roy Harper has joked about himself over the years. The line has usually
brought a good chuckle from audiences, but its also let them know from the outset that what theyre going to hear out of
Roy is far from current fare. Born in 1925, Harper had a ringside seat in his youth during the prehistory of todays
country music, and he soaked it up like a sponge. By the time he started seriously performing as a teenager, he was
already inclined toward the older songs and styles. As the decades of his career unfolded, Roy remained a living link to
music of an increasingly distant past, at every appearance winning over fans who appreciate his distinctive voice and
repertory. Nowadays, hes still playing and singing at 94; remarkable longevity makes him an even rarer musical treat.
