Noel Paul Stookey, Colin Walker, Jimmy Ryan

NOEL PAUL STOOKEY has enjoyed an extraordinary career that began as the “Paul” of the seminal 1960s folk trio Peter, Paul & Mary. Their signature vocal harmonies provided the soundtrack to a generation. At age 84 the legendary singer has released his latest album. I caught up with him.
If you grew up in Australia during the early 70’s you’re sure to remember THE FLYING CIRCUS. A country, folk-rock band that really hit it big with the teenyboppers.
I tracked down founder, COLIN WALKER and discovered a man still sad that Flying Circus weren’t able to shake their bubblegum image.
Guitarist, JIMMY RYAN has played with and written for some of the biggest names in rock n roll and his book is filled with stories about Carly Simon, Paul McCartney, Jim Croce and many more. It’s called Behind: The Autobiography of a Musical Shapeshifter. Jimmy shares stories.
