There's one website that lets you hear the captain of the Arthur M. Anderson speaking over the mike telling when he last heard the Edmund Fitzgerald.

By the way, I've always wanted to see a picture of the Anderson. Not as big as the Fitz. Thanks.

Thanks for the link, Rick, you are right...interesting reading!

I don't think Gordon would just flat out refuse to participate in this movie thing on the grounds that He does not want to capitolize on misfortune,He worked out a thing with Martin with the D-18GL where part of the proceeds{probably His part} were donated to the Maratime sailors thing,I forget exactly what it was,but anyway I think that those closely involved and Gordon,could work it out....

The arrangement with the musician is always the same. They get a guitar; quite appropriate, as they choose the model and usually help design it. In Lightfoot's case, he was very involved with every aspect of the design. No money is ever paid to the artist honored by these Limited Edition guitars.

The donation to a charity of the artist's choice is a standard amount or percent of the price of each guitar.

Lightfoot's guitar is prototype 2. Prototype 1 is on display in the Martin factory museum.

I forgot where. I don't know the name of the site. I'd seen them before so when I saw them again I figured I'd post them.
