Thread Name: Lyr ADD: The Mighty Quinn (Bob Dylan)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Ian and Sylvia's 'The Mighty Quinn'
Just the mention of Ian and Sylvia gets me going. Ian Tyson has to be one of the centuy's greatest songwriters. SUMMER WAGES, SOMEDAY SOON, FOUR STRONG WINDS, to name just a few. YOU WERE ON MY MIND was a big pop hit by "We Five". BARNEY is one of the most moving songs I've ever heard. Tyson now plays country western style, (and has always leanedthat way), and I've unfortunately not heard his newer stuff. But while I'm not a CW fan, I am sure that his is of the very highest caliber, and would probably put most CW recording artists to shame. Any comments?
