Young Chicago boy you grew up in Chicago I did 1st 10 years in Chicago then we moved to Oklahoma and you almost became a cowboy when you my almost became a cowboy Wouldn't that have been wonderful. Human Ramblin Jack Elliott You know I fell a long way short of that. So music became a career you made your way to New York City Yeah and I guess that was sort of at the time the Mecca of folk was you know I wanted to become an actor but in the end I decided to settle for the security of folk music both. Making tens and tens of dollars yes in coffeehouses speak it just flowed in $1.00 that I'm now you are at the Gaslight famous club in New York City sort of became your home base there for the Gaslight was where I really learned my chops and you met a marvelous lady there and I should tell us about your way the 1st week of January 963 midget Cummings came in the door the gas ally and I took one look and said mine. And. In 2 weeks I proposed to her really and we were married in 6 months and they gave us 6 months in the gaslight everyone said 6 months max and we were just 2 months short of 51 years will have lost. And now we're going to get to the songs on your new album you dedicated the new album to your way the whole album that she was still was my guiding star she was my editor my coffee it all. She was seen was the one who. See if I was full of it you know and point pointed out to me and saved me from a lot of embarrassment actually. Wives are good that way she was wonderful you you through the years you toured a lot you became very popular because of a lot of a lot of songs Pete Seeger was a big help in your in your early was an enormous sell very early on Pete recorded some of my songs and mentioned my name before singing these songs on an album from Carnegie Hall and that was in an enormous help to me and he left such a legacy of being a mentor to many many oh yeah I think if he'd Seeger had not crisscrossed this country throughout the 50s in the sixty's going at every every college campus every summer camp every union hall every picket line I don't know if we would be here tonight well Pete certainly planted his musical Johnny apple seeds seeds everywhere and you are one of them America fact point of note you did his little t.v. Show call rainbow quest I did it was the episode you were on that I saw that became with songs so so you have a very important place here is your episode. I was like hey that's a neat idea so let's see we're going to talk more about you your career the Gaslight days and but you have a brand new album it's a wonderful piece of work it's called Redemption road this is a tune off that album called Central Square it's Tom Paxton on the wood songs all Didn't resign from the beautiful ladies called Redemption road brand new by Tom Paxton and let's give some props to Robin Bullock North Carolina but.

So what's the secret I mean here you are half a day half a century later brand new album brand new songs you're still writing or heart you write a lot is that it's a great write a great deal if you're going to write songs write many many many songs and you get better by writing songs and oh my wife. Was a psychologist and she told me that the very act of moving a pen on paper stimulates that corner of the brain that is responsible for coming up with ideas and I when she told me that I read it it was it clicked for me because I always knew that I got more ideas once I'd begun to write. It than I'd had when I sat down so that's the secret right move that 10 you'll never be you'll be surprised by the stuff you come out with well you have a brand new album 14 songs on it's a beautiful album and to test out the the songwriting ability of Mr Tom passed let's get into the title cut you know the new album it's called Redemption road Tom Paxton on the wood songs and swimming.
