It's not exactly rocket science, Michael,

Just type "Tom Paxton" into Google and it comes up no. 1.

Takes about 10 seconds.

This is a little project that doesn't take a lot of brain cells. I can work on it and watch TV at the same time. Just set the filter to "website" and "All" and it brings up a whole truckload of 'em. I started at the bottom of the list. A lot of the links are dead, so I try to find a new one. Tom Paxton was easy. Some are harder. I never did find one for the Harbor Sessions folk club in Southwick, West Sussex. Maybe it's defunct.

I once heard a little poem, I believe Tom Paxton recited it, but I'm not sure. I just can't remmeber all the words. It goes something like :

New England, New England, Land of the....... and the cod.
Where the.........talk only to Cabots, and the Cabots only to God!

anyone out there know it ?

Found on the www:

"Bartlett's gives it to John Collins Bossidy (1860-1928):

And this is good old Boston,
The home of the bean and the cod,
Where the Lowells talk to the Cabots
And the Cabots talk only to God.

--Toast, Holy Cross Alumni Dinner, 1910."

A few years back my daughter tried to find a copy of Tom Paxton live at the orchard, to no avail, allegedly discontinued. She went on line to the Tom Paxton website to see if they could source a copy. She ended up conversing on line with Tom Paxton personally. He couldn't find a copy either. She has since found a copy. It was this album which made her interested in folk music (especially his) as I played it all the time in the car. Just thought you might be interested in this piece of trivia.

It is many things, but it ain't trivia. Thank you.

Tom headlined last summers Stan Rogers Festival in Canso, Nova Scotia. It was thrilling to see him in a live setting in both woorkshops and the main stage! Come back soon again Tom!
