The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald by Gordon Lightfoot
“I first heard this many moons ago but only after hearing a new epic version by Arbouretum recently did I go back and listen to the scarcely less epic original about a doomed freighter that sank In Lake Superior in 1975. Accompanied by one hell of a scary video.”
