Ah...Canadiana (the 70's)

Despite having never lived through the seventies, I cannot help feeling a certain nostalgia for all things Canadian from that time.

Music:



Ok, yeah, so Woodstock is in the United States, and Levon Helm too, is American... The Band, nevertheless, has a very distinct Canadian history and feeling; And they are just too good not to post!



One of Canada's greatest songwriters, Gordon Lightfoot's music is just so perfectly unassuming.



"California" on an Appalachian Dulcimer...American subject matter and instrument, even so, you just can't get any more Canadian than the Albertan Joni Mitchell.



Neil Young, so faithfully and authentically Canadian.
