It's never been on the radio. It's normally played acoustically by one person with a guitar. It's popular among those who have heard it, which is a small number of people in a small part of Canada, plus a few people in Cuba. They all heard it live. Other local musicians like it and some have covered it. It was not written to make money but for its own sake. Good enough? - LH |
