Ep. #1144: Richard Thompson

Richard Thompson returns to discuss Hippies, Thugs and Heroes, making things work with his current music collaborators, including his grandson, inheriting talent and genetic predispositions, being a creative conduit, the fulfillment he gets from teaching at his annual Frets and Refrains songwriting and guitar camp near Woodstock, NY, observations about how music students learn to play via the internet, the significance of acquiring knowledge, being patient, and displaying empathy, the reflective nature of his new album and why we might be learning a lot about him from these songs, whether he may write another book, how a Fairport Convention anniversary may be celebrated in 2027, many solo and band tour dates, other future plans, and much more.
