Thread Name: Great Canadian singer, Bob Bossin
Subject: Great Canadian singer, Bob Bossin
A week ago on one of KPFA's great Sunday line up of roots music shows I heard several songs from Bob Bossin who was in the studio performing some live and some from his cd and talking to the host. My wife was trying to get some help on something she was writing and I missed hearing how to find his music so I called the station. He was still there and was happy to talk and gave me his website:

www.island.net/~oldfolk/

I checked out the site yesterday and was amazed to find that Bob is even older than I am--he's 72, and what's amazing is that one of his songs that really moved me was written for his as yet unborn child. Hearing Bob for the first time was much like hearing Art Thieme, great singing and guitar playing, with the added attraction of Bob's truly wonderful original songs. --seed
