While I was there I listened to a performer in the Sky Train halls play some Stan Rogers songs. I rewarded him well and told him I would love to be able to play some of Stan's songs myself. He said there is abook of Stan's music out there. Does anybody know how I could aquire a copy ? |

19 Nov 98 - 02:25 PM (#46133) Subject: RE: Of Stan Rogers songs From: Bob Landry Great book, it has most of the tunes from a number of Stan Roger's albums. I picked up my copy at Mr. Entertainment (they have several locations in Edmonton). I don't know if they're in Vancouver. I'll look at my copy tonight and get details on the publisher. Bob |

Look for the CDs Home In Halifax and From Fresh Water. These are my favorites. Home... is a concert album which is a best of recording that will give you a great cross the board mix. Don. |

If they had it, you could support the Mudcat by purchasing it through the "Support the Mudcat" icon on the Main Forum page. However, Elderly Instruments does have the book. They are at elderly.com or you can click here to go right to the catalog listing. Elderly is very reliable and I suspect they will mail to Canada. Roger in Baltimore |

However, Elderly is usually known to be very reliable & I'm sure they will ship to Canada. It is still goofy to have to order a quintessentially Canadian thing from the US... The world IS strange! Cheers, BK |

I bought the book in '93, and it cost me $25.40 with the shipping. Not sure what the total would be now. That was before I had Internet access. Now you can get lots of the tunes for free. Enjoy, Dan |

20 Nov 98 - 04:42 PM (#46282) Subject: RE: Of Stan Rogers songs From: Bill Cameron Knowing how these things go, I'm sure Elderly would ship a Canadian songbook to Canada...but we'd pay for it in US dollars and the customs duty on top of that!!! It's a great book though. It was published by OFC Publications (Ottawa Folklore Centre). Among other obvious virtues, it shows lots of tasty variations of DADGAD chords--I cut my dad-gad teeth (fingers) on it, so to speak--Stan was one of the first North American s-s's to use that tuning a lot.

Also got 'Picking Sooty Blackberries' an anthology of songs by the late Keith Marsden, who founded Cockersdale That would make for interesting comparisons. Keith possessed more wit methinks So did Einnor get one |
