Thread Name: Help: Famous Newfoundland Songs
Subject: RE: Help: Famous Newfoundland Songs
Go to the Pubs in St John's in the evenings. 15 years ago when I lived in Bay Roberts, they used to have traditional jams at Legion Club in Upper Island Cove some Saturday afternoons. If you happen on one of those it will be the highlight of your trip.
Tribute to Newfoundland? Do you mean "Ode to Newfoundland?
How about?
Kellegrews Sworee(sp) Sonny's Dream, Lukey's Boat Star of Logy Bay Got to Get Me Moose Bye The Old Polina
Pretty much Anything by Buddy Wasisname, The Irish Descendants, Ryan's Fancy, Great Big Sea or Stan Rogers.
The Songs Amos listed seem good but in my 31 years on the Island, I'd never heard of them.
