Thread Name: info on: Joe King (from Maritime Canada)
Subject: Joe King - and info?
In 1983, we were playing at some festival. I met a guy from maritime Canada named Joe King. He had a great voice, and he gave me a tape for the radio show I did in Pittsburgh. The tape vanished at some point.
He did a nice version of a John Denver song he reworked - 'almost heaven, Nova Scotia'...
But my favorite song started out 'I followed her down to a small fishing village on the cold New Brunswick shore.
The boarding house lady just leaned on her cane, said she don't live here any more'...
Anyone know the song, or the lyrics? Or have any info on Joe? I'd appreciate any replies. Thanks! jondoe888 - gmail
