Enjoyed Judy Collins' appearance on Radio 3's Private Passions last weekend-up at http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00d9z02/
until Sunday lunchtime.

Told the story of being phoned up by Al Kooper early one morning-he had a young singer-songwriter who wanted to play a song down the phone. Rest is, as they say, history. Version of Both Sides Now used in the programme was the late one from her first big band album-leading to some interesting chat about the London session orchestral players who formed the "band".

And for a remarkable reminiscence of Mike Bloomfield by Kooper check out the Gadfly archive-see
