Judy Collins

We have a session with Judy Collins on 'Bob Harris Country' tomorrow night (Thurs 25th) on BBC Radio 2. Warm conversation and acoustic versions of 'Both Sides Now' and 'My Father'.
The last time I saw her was at the 2005 Americana Awards at the Ryman in Nashville and her voice is still rich, true and absolutely stunning. She sang 'Amazing Grace'. Very, very special.
Bob.
