A very good question DMD 3 and one for which I have personally never seen a definitive answer
but in another thread today the "railway hall of fame" it says
"The
original ballad tells the tale of the building of the Canadian Pacific
Railway, and is one of 400 songs that he's written and recorded"
But it just so happens that I am working on a private Gord mp3 project for which I need a definitive answer so will work on it from the available published sources but off the cuff 400 sounds pretty close if you include songs on say the Warner-7 Arts demo disc
the Canadian Talent Library discs/albuns and the next "Eleven-on Twenty"!!!
