Pete-- nice chatting tonight with you. Hey, you guys-- we had FIVE in the chat room. Check it out!!I had the pleasure of seeing G. Lightfoot in concert, he did sing "Edmund Fitzgerald". His entire intro (not his strong point as an entertainer) was "it's a good song and I'm glad I wrote it".
The MTA is a rewrite of The Ship That Never Returned. I don't know much more than that, but have seen the words and chords(all 3 of them) in folk song books.
I saw a PP&M concert and they DID say that Puff The Magic Dragon IS a simple children's song NOT about marijuana etc. ---Sometimes a cigar is only a cigar.
Pete, It is GREAT project, and DO please email it to me when it's ready.
