Judy Collins at the GRAMMY MuseumMusic legend and GRAMMY-Winner Judy Collins discussed her poetry book Sometimes It’s Heaven: Poems of Love, Loss, and Redemption with  three-time Emmy-winner, On-Air Reporter, and Senior Producer for Extra TV Adam Weissler in the Clive Davis Theater at the Grammy Museum on April 5th. Collins, just a month away from her 86th birthday, has had quite an extraordinary career—the following night she performed at the Fred Kavli Theater in Thousand Oaks, CA. Since her first album release in 1961, Collins has released over 30 albums and her music has spanned the genres of Pop, Folk, Country, and Show Tunes. During the discussion, she spoke of her friendship with Leonard Cohen (they did a duet album together in 2004, Democracy). Of the poems read from her book, Collins read one that she had written quite some time ago about Gene Hackman, who recently passed. Although the event was a book discussion and not a performance, Collins did sing quite a bit throughout the conversation. Afterwards, she signed copies of her book and talked with fans. Collins continues to tour across the U.S.—most recently, in 2023, she toured across England and in 2024, she toured in Australia. Collins first appeared at the GRAMMY Museum for "An Evening With" event in 2011, which was just two years after the museum opened.Photos by Alex KluftThe post Judy Collins at the GRAMMY Museum first appeared on Music Connection Magazine.
