Album CA 1967 on RCA Camden label
Folk (Folk)
Side 2 songs have French names as sub-titles, except Orange Blossom: (La joyeuse Quebecouise, Reel de la Pointe-Au-Pic, Chevaliers de la Table Ronde, Le baril Laventine) Notes; The Ukraine. Birthplace of my parents. Home to my relations: uncles, aunts, and grandmother (Babushka). This is my heritage. I learned to play Ukraininan tunes as a child in Medicine Hat, Alberta. Weddings and dances were to social life for a Ukrainian; tunes and the instrumentals made up an important part of any function. Listening to them, I am sure you will all feel the sense of excitement and activity that is so characteristic of a Ukrainian function. I hope you will enjoy some of the traditional French-Canadian numbers which I have included. As you are aware, I have been a 'regular' on the CBC Tommy Hunter Show. Many of the selections on this album have been played at one time or another on the show and I hope some of your favorites are here.
