I’m still amazed when I get to interview a musician whose music I’ve loved most of my life. It happened recently, when Judy Collins visited Mixed Bag.

I have to admit, I was nervous. But Judy was so gracious and professional that I was able to relax and enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime event. Of course, the music was wonderful.

Ms. Collins performed in Studio A with Norwegian guitarist Jonas Fjeld, Dave Wilson, John Teer and Greg Readling of the blugrass group Chatham County Line, and her music director and pianist Russell Walden.

I hope you enjoy their visit as much as I did — listen to the archived session above.
