[mplpost] Canada - A Folkie History?

[Clyde Tyndale]

OK,

I'll put my hand up - whatever happened to Bonnie Dobson anyway?

The song she sang that most comes to my mind is " Jam at Gerry's Rock"
Which probably isn't really Canadian, but she also sang "Frankie Slide"
while not completely trad - but trad in style - is about a Canadian event.

I have 2 recodings of hers on old vinyl - Prestige/Folklore series - anybody
know if this was ever re-released to CD?
