Jethro Tull's Martin Barre, Merrilee Rush and Oz's Kevin Borich

Guitarist Martin Barre was an integral part of English band Jethro Tull for many years and had been joined at the hip with founder, Ian Anderson since 1969. The two had a massive falling out which led to the band breaking up in 2011 but Martin refused to lay down his guitar and today travels solo with his own band making wonderful music. We catch up with Martin to discover the roots of Jethro Tull and how being in that band, changed him forever. American singer, Merrilee Rush is best known for her song "Angel of the Morning", a top-10 hit which earned her a Grammy nomination for female vocalist of the year in 1968. This week we meet Merilee to hear the incredible story behind that song and to get to know a little more about the woman who insisted on singing it. New Zealand-born Australian guitarist, singer-songwriter Kevin Borich is a quintessential stalwart in the Australian and New Zealand music scene. He’s been around for 56 years and has just released a fabulous new album called 'Legacy'.  As a founding member of  the rock outfit, The LaDeDas as well as The Kevin Borich Express and The Party Boys, Kevin is loved from Gympie to Gundagai and everywhere between.  Join me?
