Beer,

"A Taste of the Maritimes," is what made me a Tom Lewis fan. I'd never heard him before. They were playing it as the background music in a touristy place in Cape Breton where I was having breakfast in 1996-- I asked about it, and they had it in their gift shop.

Fun album. I've given away many copies of it as gifts over the years.
