Goldberg on the re-release of his 'Misty Flats' album

When Barry Thomas Goldberg released his "Misty Flats" album in the mid-1970s, few people heard it. Now, they'll have a second chance.

Goldberg was part of an underground folk scene in Minnesota. He recorded the solo album at a particular moment in American history — the Vietnam War was ending, and Watergate had shaken the country.

Light in the Attic Records is now re-releasing Goldberg's album. It's out Friday.
