Ian & Sylvia Jamming CC Rider 1 comment
Awesome jam with Buddy Cage, Jerry Garcia, Ian & Sylvia, Bill Kreutzman – who do you see ?
Ian & Sylvia Tyson legends of folk and country music in Canada, their manager – Albert Grossman went on to manage Dylan.
They also formed one smoking band, Great Speckled Bird with Amos Garrett on the Strat, which you should definitely check out.
In 1992 they were inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame during the Juno Awards ceremony.
and in 1994 they were both made Members of the Order of Canada. In 2005 an extensive Canadian Broadcasting Corporation poll determined their song “Four Strong Winds” to be the “most essential” piece of Canadian music.
In 2006 they were both inducted into the Mariposa Hall of Fame. It was in 1961 that Ian and Sylvia headlined at Canada’s legendary Mariposa Festival. This recent induction featured a rare live performance by the duo (accompanied by David Celia on guitar) in Toronto to an enthusiastic audience including Gordon Lightfoot.
Here they simply rock out out with an amazing jam.
