Judy truly has the loveliest voice I've ever heard

Wow! What a wise as well as talented woman!

What a great interview with a great icon of music I’ve learned a lot about Judy I’ve never known and who I’ve idolized for years what a great lady!

What a remarkable and inspiring woman. Bill Boggs really knows how to interview woman, thank you!

What an absolutely beautiful and insightful interview. Thank you.

Happy 80th Birthday Judy Collins

Great interview Bill Boggs. Wonderful & interesting, the way an in-depth talk should be. Judy's answers & recollections are so informative. Always lovely, aging gracefully.

Judy Blue Eyes 💙💙💙💙

Brilliant interview! I’ve often said that Judy Collins doesn’t need a spotlight onstage; she’s illuminated from within.

Love you, Judy! Máire

This is so cool and so true about her voice. .Thank you ❤

Thankyou Ms Collins you have given me my reason to start again,what a woman. Regards Chris

A mirical.

I CANNOT believe she gave you the opening - SHE brings up "being a groupie, well more than a groupie for Stephen" and you didn't jump on it. Besides being the worlds foremost mystical songstress with that amazing voice, she is the SUBJECT of one of the biggest rock songs in history and everyone who interviews her fails to mention it.

I love Bill Boggs's interviews because he really knows the music and the work of the people he interviews. He asks the questions I would ask. :)

Thanks for mentioning "The Artist's Way". Delightful interview with a delightful woman.

Thank you for writing me an email regarding my brother. Singing Lessons helped me so much.

Bill Boggs asks the best questions.

50 albums

I tried to ask Max Margulies about having voice lessons once, and he said he only worked, exclusively, with Judy Collins! So he must have been on her payroll. I also met Michael Sahl who wrote a couple of songs for her.

This popped up on my KZfaq feed. Big fan of Judy's AND I remember you so well, Bill, having grown up in New Rochelle (now West Coast). Terrific interview! One question, though: when did it take place? Thanks so much, Bill!

Still the best

bs"d 'Send in the Clowns' helped me when I felt distant from someone I cared about... I knew someone else had felt that way.

I've always enjoyed Judy Collins' voice, but I had no idea she'd released 50 albums. MasterOfMyDomain.guru

It's not that suicide survivors are shut down, I don't think, but that the suicide must be because it can be very contagious; one suicide encourages another.

bs"d I was so heartbroken when I read in a magazine article that she had lost her son. How could this happen. To the beautiful people. It's still hard to accept; someone who gives so much, on stage, and now in a podcast. It's a mystery, how these tragedies happen, because I have seen them striking in such unexpected places. There are so many factors that determine how long a specific soul can stand the rigors of life in a physical body in whatever that person's social setting and set of requirements may be, and I believe that everyone lives out their full hundred and twenty years, just that some people do it more quickly because they live more intensely, so that they accomplish the same amount, in human achievement, that another person would accomplish in a hundred and twenty. He must have touched many lives in a very giving and helpful way, which perhaps left him 'burned out' already in his twenties. Sometimes family members will never know what a positive and dynamic impact their little one has had on other contacts, in other places, before they can't go on any more. A soul gets tired, from too many difficult challenges. It can't always hang on. My sister said, re. someone we both know, 'if it wouldn't have been that, maybe it would have been something else, maybe a plane accident; maybe it was her time'. It's all a mystery. One story, about a couple who lost a two-year old and went to see a pastoral counselor, is that the counselor explained that this child had lived before, a very long and noble life, but he was missing two years of achievement, and so he was reincarnated into this couple's baby, and by giving him a good life for two years, they helped his soul complete its mission, and they should be proud that they cared for such a noble soul in the two years of infancy and early toddlerhood. There is so much to be proud of!

Joe Boyd, Ms. Collins, is not English. He was born in Boston.

Fantastic woman! Appears that she had a stroke?

She looks absolutely fantastic for an 80 year old, and it's great to hear that's she's still performing; long may that continue. I don't hold her connections with the Clinton crime family against her; she is clearly sincere in her beliefs and a lot has changed over the last couple of decades.

There is something sad about the self absorption of celebrities. There is just so much of what they do that seems to them so important but in reality people will forget 5 mins after hearing of their death. They become fans of themselves.

One percenter hypocrite 🙄

She's almost as cute as Emmylou

Someone who wrote a ballad to a Marxist, and championed abortion......what respect I wanted to have evaporated, sadly.

"Your classic song, Both Sides Now" WHAT??! That's another Joni MItchell rip-off that she sang half as good as Joni. I honestly don't understand why anyone would prefer a not-so-good knockoff over the REAL THING? This is tantamount to an actor in Hamlet, claiming to have written the damn play! She's a complete imposter!

Did Judy EVER write a song? Did she ever protest in the streets? Song For Duke? It's been on YT since 2014 and not one thumbs up or comment. Meh... Cut me a break! She sang other people's songs...and complained about every little thing. She was a privileged fille a papa who never suffered a day in her life. And for her to claim that "she discovered" the great songwriters of our generation, is beyond belief!! Let me guess...she discovered the Beatles too, right? I mean...Bonnie Raitt never wrote a song either but at least she could play some decent blues guitar, like Robert Johnson. (I know because I jammed with her in her motel room back in her Freebo days.)

Excuse me...Joni Mitchell made "Woke up it was a Chelsea Morning" famous! SHE WROTE IT...She sang it. She made it a hit! Get real man. Collins was nothing but an egotistical wannabe, talentless DIVA getting rich doing cover songs! She was a snobby, upper class karaoke singer! Everybody who ever knew her will attest to that (if they're honest!)
