OK OK

"why?????????"
As soon as I heard that Mr Gretzky's wife was implicated I remembered the unreleased song about an "Athabasca Lady" that's why
(It sounded a good idea at the time}
and Al:-
"What song does Gord mention Gretzky?"
Sorry if I confused you but I thought I clearly said it was an unreleased song :-
Yes I said:-
"list of unreleased songs"....."a ditty possibly called "ATHABASCA LADY""
OK I admit that ditty is an odd word for a song
but you cannot blaim it on not being a word used in the States
". A song; a lay; a little poem intended to be sung. ``Religious, martial, or civil ditties.'' --Milton.

And to the warbling lute soft ditties sing. --Sandys.
