Folk music legends and dear friends John McCutcheon and Tom Paxton just released the new album Together and to celebrate we asked John to tell us about the song "The Fan". Here is the story:

I've learned that the polite query "How ya doing?" begins a much longer conversation these days than it used to be. No different with someone you see every week. It usually morphs into news about old friends, rants about the day's events and, eventually, lots of talk about sports....'cause we're both guys. (continue)
