While performing domestic chores this afternoon, I had been listening to the CD “The Best of Tom Paxton.” In fact, I played the disc more than once.
I looked up at the clock and saw that it was nearly 9 o’clock (EDT). It was time for “Folkstage” on WFMT. I seldom hear all of “Folkstage,” though I often hear the end of it when I tune in to hear “The Midnight Special,” which airs at 10.
As fate would have it this night, the “Folkstage” program was a rebroadcast of a 2015 concert with Tom Paxton and Janis Ian performed at Chicago’s Old Time School of Folk Music. Obviously, I like Tom Paxton. And Janis Ian is one of my favorite singers. I knew and loved many of the songs sung on the program.
What an unexpected treat!
