425 - Tom Rush - First New Album in Five Years - Gardens Old, Flowers New
Tom Rush pretty much pioneered the folk movement of the early Sixties, issuing his debut album in 1962. He’s also credited with putting compositions by Joni Mitchell, Jackson Browne and James Taylor on album for the first time, with his LP The Circle Game in 1968. We talked with Tom back in 2018 when he issued his album Voices.
Well, he’s back with his first new record in five years out called Gardens Old, Flowers New. He talks about how he unearthed one of the songs on the new album from a live recording from 50 years ago. Also, how he wrote a song for his daughter when she was young (now she's grown up), and how he never intended that one to be on an album. He also talks about Rockport Sundays, a program he started during Covid, where he invites many of his musical friends to play and tell stories.
