"My favourite track is next, Denis Conn's 'The Miner's Song', made popular by John Allan Cameron. With the opening "Billy's first breath was the last of his mother/He was born on the shores of a town called Glace Bay", Gunning dedicates the song to the men who died in the Westray mine disaster.   This is a beautiful song; the emotion in Gunning's voice and Cormier's fiddle accompaniment really suit the melancholy, serious message of the song.   I've been to Glace Bay, and I've been in the mine. This song captures the sadness that hangs over it."
