The late Canadian folk singer/songwriter was something of a Canadian national treasure when he died in 1983. This CD celebrates his relaxed Cape Breton style, it’s a newly re-mastered redo of his first album and features his comfy-as-an-old-slipper voice and solid playing from the band. Lots of story songs, great stuff. No FCCs but #5 does have a few god damns. *1. Fast fiddling, a fun and furious toe-tapper. Yay! 2. Slow and relaxed love song. A warm and sweet sound. *3. Uptempo Celtic-meets-the Maritimes folk ode. 4. Downtempo ballad of a woman waiting for her sailor. *5. A capella seafaring tune for solo voice & chorus. Midtempo. 6. Slow and sad maritime ode. Gentle, soft, and full of nostalgia. 7. Relaxed folk ballad w/lots of emotion and passion. 8. Slow and nostalgic remembrance of a life gone by. 9. Bright and lively Celtic-infused instrumental hornpipe.. *10. Fast and energetic maritime song w/wonderful strings. 11. Slow folk waltz w/a fragile, old-time quality. 12. Spoken word track about men out of work, leads right into #13 13. Quiet instrumental reprise of track #7. Long fade at end. | ||
