Good tune, but I'm a little disappointed in the video. I was hoping for some clips of Great Lake storms.

haha, I knew this thread would have that song in it. I loved going to Duluth as a kid and watching the massive ore ships go in and out of the harbor.

There is a great Porter of the same name brewed by Great Lakes Brewing Co.
More of a tribute than a song, IMO.

Pretty much. As just a song, it's kinda weak though, IMO.

Better.

Agreed. MUCH better.

I remember when this happened. Not a lot of news coverage...especially by today's standards, but it was indeed a big event for the time.

I've liked Gordon Lightfoot's music for over 40 years, although he didn't really gain popularity until about 1970.

Lake Superior is a wicked, wicked lake. Just think of an inland body of water that has the capability of breeding rogue waves.
