Theme: The 50th Anniversary of my first concert production.
This edition of Stranger Songs is an exercise in personal nostalgia. It was 50 years ago, on November 18, 1972, that I produced a concert for the first time – Bruce Murdoch was the headliner with Kevin Head opening at Dawson College. All the songs on this show are by a small sampling of the artists I presented in concerts at various venues in Montreal in the 1970s, ‘80s and ‘90s.
