...was lost 35 years ago today on the great sea Gitche Gumee. If you've never seen Lake Superior I advise it, it's awesome.

It inspired a song too! Here is a tribute! I would love to see Gitche Gumee Someday!

If you ever make it J, go on the Pictured Rocks cruise. They look like a mini Grand Canyon with the huge waves of Superior pounding on them.

Its on my bucket list if we ever get these kids raised and finish cleaning up their mess (bailing out of jail) LOL!

Thanks a lot, JH! I haven't heard that song in years. I haven't played it in years, either. MAN, that's a lot of words, but I use to do it every week.

I learned that song back in the early 80's cause its always been one of my favs. I still run through it on my acoustic every 6 months or so when I am playing for ME!

I remember when it came out... it was the spookiest song.

Thanks for that clip...that was pretty interesting.

I sure got tired of the song though.....

Saw a special on how she sank. Very interesting.

That's a fantastic video, really emotional. Thanks for posting it.

That is a great song that really jumps up at you from the begining to the end !!

I love that song

This song is in A sus to E minor a very spooky progression and just shows the GENIUS of Gordon Lightfoot! He is one of my abosulte favs!
