17. Judy Collins and Abigail Pogrebin
This week, we’ll be listening to a discussion between famed singer-songwriter Judy Collins and Abigail Pogrebin. Collins is a six-time Grammy nominee and winner of one, for her cover of Joni Mitchell’s “Both Sides Now” in 1969. Back then, she evoked the idealism and determination of a generation united against social and environmental injustices. Five decades later, new generations take inspiration from her 55-album body of work and discipline to thrive in the music industry for half a century. The talk was recorded on May 24th, 2012.
