I recently posted ten Canadian tracks that I believe collectively epitomize the spirit of Canadian music. Getting that list down to ten was a serious pain in the ass, so here are some of the songs that were on the bubble and eventually fell to the cutting room floor.
- Canadian Railroad Trilogy - Gordon Lightfoot
- Home For A Rest - Spirit of the West
- Let Your Backbone Slide - Maestro Fresh-Wes
- Born To Be Wild - Steppenwolf
- Four Strong Winds - Ian & Sylvia
- Suzanne - Leonard Cohen
- Sleepy Maggie - Ashley MacIsaac
- Spinning Wheel - Blood, Sweat & Tears
- Misguided Angel - Cowboy Junkies
- Signs - Five Man Electrical Band
Not too shabby for a B-list.
