US legend Judy Collins must have taken a shine to Australia last year, she’s just announced another visit, only her third in a magnificent career that has spanned over 50 years. The revered and prolific musician, accomplished painter, filmmaker and author brings with her a new album, titled BOHEMIAN. Released to coincide with the iconic folksinger's 2011 memoir Sweet Judy Blue Eyes, BOHEMIAN finds Judy Collins revisiting the late-'60s California music scene. Driven by her signature effortless soprano, the album features four new original cuts to add to an already legendary and extensive repertoire; Morocco, Wings of Angels, In the Twilight, and Big Sur, along with seven covers, including Woody Guthrie’s Pastures of Plenty, the lullaby All The Pretty Horses, Pure Imagination from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory and Joni Mitchell's Cactus Tree.
