Ewan MacColl's "Springhill Mine Disaster" (We'll live on songs and hope instead!). Bob Coltman's "Weaver's Reverie." Gordon Bok's "Mrs. MacDonald's Lament" (still, to my mind, one of his best songs) and "Turning Toward the Morning." If "Peter Kagan and the Wind" can be considered a song, throw that one in, too. I can still get choked up when "Down through the smoking seas she comes, over the side of the boat she comes, laughing, to his arms."
And so many more! I have to agree with Rick Fielding's observation above. You're right, Rick. We made a good choice!
