A nice tribute to the miners, I think the song fits many lost disasters not just the Edmund Fitzgerald. Gordon was a great balladeer. He has a lot of great songs, one of my favorites of his is Cotton Jenny, always liked that tune from day one of hearing it. Of course now I need to go listen to both tunes.

I just couldn't get enough of Lightfoot in the 70s. What a prodigious song writer and a great performer also.
So now I have to go listen to Cotton Jenny, too!
Such a contrast the two songs make.
There's another I remember well-I can still sing it mostly fifty years later.
