Bob Franke - The Other Evening In Chicago

Bob Franke is a veteran New England songwriter who has been performing since 1965. This CD is a live recording retrospective of his classic songs, including "The Great Storm is Over," "Thanksgiving Eve," "Hard Love," "For Real" and others. Bob's intros capture his humor and reveal a personal side to the material, making this collection a self-portrait. "It's his integrity. I always think of Bob as if Emerson and Thoreau had picked up acoustic guitars and gotten into songwriting. There's touches of Mark Twain and Buddy Holly in there, too." - Tom Paxton. "A singer/songwriter unsurpassed for his lyrical grace... one of our wisest and most spiritually graceful songwriters." - Boston Globe. Radio credits: Prairie Home Companion, Mountain Stage, West Coast Weekend.
