For this classic show, we return to the Fitzgerald Theater with a show from June 17, 2000, as Garrison welcomes the Irish musical group Dervish and folksinger Tom Paxton to the Prairie Home stage, along with Andy Stein and the Guy’s All-Star Shoe Band, plus our Royal Academy of Radio Actors. Among the highlights, a fair amount of talk about dads, including a Father’s Day script for Guy Noir. Tom Paxton sings his tunes “Bottle of Wine” and “My Favorite Spring,” Andy Stein plays “Don’t Jump Off the Roof, Dad” and treats us to the “Wabasha Wiggle” with the Guy’s All-Star Shoe Band. Dervish shares “Midsummer’s Night” and “The Bold Doherty.” And there are a few words from our sponsors and the latest News. Listen - bit.ly/466hb9j |

Dervish
Dervish began in 1989 when five musicians from the northwest of Ireland got together to record an album of music by local songwriters. They were so inspired by the experience of making the album, titled The Boys of Sligo after a reel from the recording, that they decided to turn the informal gathering into a working band. Over the next two years, Dervish honed their craft as an instrumental ensemble and added vocalist Cathy Jordan in 1991. At the end of 2019, Dervish received a lifetime achievement award from the BBC after over 30 years of recording and performing all over the world. Described by the BBC as “an icon of Irish music,” the band has played at festivals from Rio to Glastonbury. They are still actively touring, but you may need to cross the pond to catch a show.
Tom Paxton
Tom Paxton was born in Chicago in 1937, and moved to Bristow, Oklahoma, at the age of 10. He earned a BFA degree in drama from the University of Oklahoma, where he started writing songs to amuse himself during lectures on Shakespeare. He later spent time in the Army, which brought him to the East Coast. Stationed at Fort Dix, New Jersey, Paxton started heading to Greenwich Village on weekends. After his discharge, he began performing at The Gaslight. With more than 60 years as a recording artist and more than 60 albums, Tom Paxton has written songs that have become the fabric of our lives whether recorded by him or by others. Pete Seeger said: “Tom’s songs have a way of sneaking up on you. You find yourself humming them, whistling them, and singing a verse to a friend. Like the songs of Woody Guthrie, they’re becoming part of America.” Tom received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2009.

I was just hoping everyone was OK. So thanks, DW for all your work, and I apologize for my absence. So Happy Fathers' Day! I hope you're in touch with your family and have a wonderful time. |

I net with the pre-med student that I am mentoring yesterday for brunch, and after that with a fellow alum from college who wasn't at the reunion but turns out to live down the street from me so we visited for a while. Such past and future (alum-to-be pre-med and old friend from 50+ years ago all in one day) that i tuned in late, no one was here and I was so tired I needed a nap.
Didn't have the energy to find the email from GK that probably had the right show link. Thanks for posting this DW, I'll still catch up with the show because I really like Tom Paxton, had tix to see him and John McCutcheon last year but the show was in VA and I didn't have the energy to get there for a concert.
I hope to be here next Saturday but if I decide to drive instead of fly to Big Sur, I might be en route to storytelling. Will keep y'all posted.
I received and email from GK advertising a show in July in some midwestern state, forget where. He is prepping for the 50th anniversary of APHC next year.
