Public Image Limited, if you can believe it, when I was a teenager.

Strange days, indeed.

8. Stompin' Tom is a National Treasure!
Edited on Fri Nov-28-03 02:04 AM by sweet_scotia
I read his autobiography a couple of years ago and laughed so hard I cried. The man is a true patriot and so very, very unappreciated by the Canadian public ... (consumers)

My favourite song:

Big Joe Mufferaw paddled into Mattawa
all the way from Ottawa in just one day
Hey-Hey
On the river Ottawa the best man we ever saw
was Big Joe Mufferaw the old folks say
Come and listen and I'll tell you what the old folks say

And they say Big Joe had an old pet frog
bigger than a horse and he barked like a dog
And the only thing quicker than a train upon a track
was Big Joe riding on the bull-frog's back

Hey-Hi, Hey-Hi-Ho, the best man in Ottawa was Mufferaw Joe,
Mufferaw Joe

"Big Joe Mufferaw" by Stompin' Tom Connors
