Across This Land with Stompin' Tom Connors

submitted by SlipperyPete

1 decade 1 year 11 months 2 weeks ago

RIP Stompin' Tom Connors - February 9, 1936 – March 6, 2013

This is footage from a show played at the Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto, 1973.
*******

He is known for many classic hits,
including "Bud The Spud" "Ben In The Pen"
"Margo's Cargo" "Sudbury Saturday Night"
"The Hockey Song" "Luke's Guitar" "The Ketchup Song"
and many more!

Stompin' Tom combines the sound of
traditional country western music,
with Canadian folk music.
A very unique blend!

His influences include:
Hank Snow, Hank Williams,
Johnny Cash, Roger Miller

Best tweet I read on his passing - "He taught me how to love Canada in a way no history book ever could"
