Description:
From the d.j.: "This rich and evocative collection of Canadian song, music, poem and illustration reflects the lyrical, the provocative and the whimsical qualities inherent in the people of this land. The songs, chosen for their poetic lyrics, their historical and geographic significance and their beauty of melody, include the lyrics of Gordon Lightfoot, Joni Mitchell and Ian Tyson. Among the musical score selections are those of Healey Willan and Harry Somers. The poetry, representative of traditional and modern trends, features, among others, the works of E.J. Pratt, Ray Souster and Al Purdy."
