Tom Rush is an American folk and blues singer, guitarist, and songwriter. He plays guitar superbly and he has a great folky voice.
This was his second album and its simple guitar, washtub bass and voice delivery is pretty much perfect. Its mixture of covers and original songs presents a real talent.
Where do they all belong? He's still around - age 84.
