Have that album, since it came out. I saw him do "Canadian Railroad Trilogy" live, at a fairly small college venue in the early 70's; I'm a sucker for 12-strings, and he was literally drenched in sweat when the song ended.

I'm a bit chuffed at this. While my novel ("Throng: Going Station to Station") is on a storage track due to the pandemic, one of the songs there is now out!
