What? Canucks on the Cat and noone mentions Bruce Cockburn? What is up? Massive body of work. brilliant songs. Someone I've really been enjoying is Katherine Wheatley from Ontario. She's an incredible songwriter. What about Ani difranco? Does Neil Young make this list? i gotta say, "O Lonesome me" feels just timeless. Stephen Fearing , especially his last, live album "So Many Miles". Amazing guitarist to boot. Steve Earle. I just discovered this guy recently. I mean, I was familiar with CHR, which is a great tune, but I picked up a cheap CHR cassete for the car ride home one night, and the songs on that album just knocked me out. It's great when you "discover" someone who's been around forever. You've got all those old albums to check out. SB
