Thread Name: Origins: Barrett's Privateers (Stan Rogers)
Subject: RE: Barrett's Privateers - Can anyone help us?
There's also a Sherbrooke in Quebec, straight North of Orleans, Vermont an hour or so. It's NE of Magog, and due SOuth of Asbestos. As I recall, that area of Quebec is know as the Eastern townships, although it's been some time since I visited that part of the world. I'd have to bet that Stan was refering to the Sherbrooke in N.S., though, since the P.Q. Sherbrooke is quite a ways from the St. Lawrence. I guess this note is just a waste of everyone's time, but I did get to recall some ol' Northern road trips. Look for the several parody versions of this great tune on the Stan site. Happy pickin'!
