Anyone know what became of Bruce Murdoch, the "follk singer" who made
the coffee house circuit in the mid 1960s? He was featured on the
Elektra lp, ' Singer/Songwriter Project'. He lived in the Village and
later moved to California.

I thought he was Canadian and went back there. In any case Mike Regenstreif
has the answers.

Bruce was from Montreal and was back here by the late-'60s. He was
very active on the Montreal folk scene during the early-to-middle-70s. He
stopped performing by the late-'70s and moved to Alberta. He taught high
school for a while and I recently heard from a mutual friend that he's now a
high school principal in Alberta.
BTW, Bruce recorded two more LPs after the SINGER-SONGWRITER PROJECT.
33 AND 1/3 REVOLUTIONS PER MINUTE (Stormy Forest) which was marred by truly
deadful production and BRUCE MURDOCH (Radio Canada International) which was
very good. I played a song from it on my radio show this past week.
