Bruce Cockburn joins us on Episode 611 of Folk Roots Radio for a wonderful in-depth conversation about his new career spanning retrospective, “Greatest Hits 1970-2020”, a double CD set featuring 30 songs he has released as singles. After 34 albums, 13 Junos, thousands of shows across the world and numerous other awards, it’s been quite the career. The good news is that Bruce Cockburn is still going strong, still working on new songs, and still playing shows. In fact, this month he sets out on his 50th Anniversary tour. It’s actually Take 2 – because COVID put paid to the first version last year. There was a lot to talk about which is why we’ve given over the whole of this episode to the interview. So settle down and enjoy Bruce Cockburn… in Conversation on Folk Roots Radio.

If you like the artists you hear on this show and want to support them, don’t just stream their music – BUY their music and then you’ll really make a difference to their income during this difficult time when it’s much more challenging to find live shows.

Rosanne Baker Thornley — Give Me One More Night

Long, evolving and meditative track to be enjoyed in a relaxed setting.  I hope this song takes you away.  Here's to finding solace in the new year.

Dai Sorano — Wrinkles

Performed by MIKALYN
Written by © Rosanne Baker Thornley & Scott MacKay

There’s too much sky - too blue - too wide
The birds on the wire, are singing but I don’t know why 
Why aren’t the roses hanging their heads
They’re standing straight up - blooming instead

Now that we’re apart, 
There’s nothing, 
but blood in my heart

Why does that guy, have a smile on his face,
And why is the sun even shining today,
Why are the headlines talking ‘bout love 
Don’t they all know, what happened to us ,

Now that we’re apart,
There’s nothing
But blood in my heart.

The moon goes up -  the sun goes down
The stars light up - the world goes round 
Every day, life moves on
It don’t stop, for anyone
Moon goes up - the sun goes down
The stars light up - the world goes round 
Every day, life moves on
It don’t stop, for anyone

Now that we’re apart there’s nothing 
Now that we’re apart there’s nothing 
But blood in my heart

NOTHING  BUT BLOOD

2020.11.10 Thunderstorm Meditation: Night Forest. Late Spring.

I create. I write. 
I write songs for me. And I write songs with and for other artists. My team produces me and many of the artists I work with. I’ve received quite a few international songwriting awards which is cool and that adds a nice bit of visibility along the way. I love what I do, and I’ve been doing this a long time. Every day I work with awesome, talented people who inspire and motivate me to want more. Music is not an easy business, but its certainly made for an interesting journey to this point. And so it continues :) For more, please visit my site at rbtsong.com. And thank you for dropping by to listen. RBT
