Thread Name: Lets talk Tom Rush
Subject: RE: Lets talk Tom Rush
I know the link is not to a song written by Tom. As far as I know he does not write much.

He is such a terrific performer it is hard to explain to folks who've not seen him - and there's big show or flash - it's just Tom Rush.

I saw Linda Ronstadt open the show for Tom at the Orpheum Theater in Boston. This was when Linda was on top of the world with her big, rockin' band, you remember, "I've been cheated - When will I be loved" sort of stuff. She played an awesome show with that great band, balzing guitars. pedal steel, bass, drums, keys - then out Tom by himself and he brought the house down!

What a show. What a performer!
