Canada, Tears And Music

No matter how many times I listen to him, I get all teary-eyed. This man put Canada on the musical map. Even though he was from Nova Scotia, his lexicon covered the entire country - the prairies, the north, and of course, the east coast. And his tragic and horrifying end was a good, if macabre, lesson for we spoiled brats of the '60s. I miss you terribly, Stan.

First learned of Stan from a co-worker.. He is a lessor-known ambassador of Canadian culture but he really has no equal in talent, power of voice or historical lessons to be learned.

Thanks for this treat of a post!
