Very sweet version, and the only one other than Gord's original that I'm aware of.

When this song came out in the early years I was very moved by it, having just recently arrived in Toronto from Newfoundland. Lyrically it's a testimony to just what went on in the lives of East Coast Maritimers in those days.

It's yet another beautiful piece of Gord's work that we don't get to hear ofter enough.
