STOMPIN’ TOM CONNORS
The Unpopular Stompin' Tom
1976 Canada pressing

Killer music from a Canadian legend.

STC was a 100% badass. Every single one of his records is a slayer.

Classic twangy singer/songwriter country, rife with Canada references.

I particularly have a soft spot for “Where The Chinooks Blow” with its Hawaiian-sounding lap steel, and the lyric “I’m going back again/to Vancouver Island.”

I will end this Stompin’ Tom post in the same way I’ve ended all of my previous Stompin’ Tom posts, with hopes that I can conjure him back from the dead, and it won’t be just an idea on a sticker:

STOMPIN’ TOM FOR PRIME MINISTER.
