Bruce Cockburn: Lyrical Genius and Activist 📜

Bruce Cockburn’s lyrics have walked the line between poetic & political.
Since the '70s, the #Canadian singer-songwriter has woven environmentalism, spirituality, & human rights into intricate arrangements. With tracks like If I Had a Rocket Launcher & Lovers in a Dangerous Time, he shaped folk-rock into a vehicle for both introspection and action. 🇨🇦 #Canada #BruceCockburn #CanadianMusic #FolkRock

🧵4/ final - Finishing off the #MusicVideo thread for a Friday evening, and continuing the #CelticMusic theme, here are Cape Breton Island’s Beaton Sisters playing on the stage of the #CelticColours music festival. This is one of my favorite pieces ever. It starts slow, but if it doesn’t get your feet tapping by the end… you don’t have a pulse or you’re stone deaf. #Music #Fiddle #CapeBreton #CapeBretonIsland #CanadianMusic #CanadianMade https://youtu.be/xCSk5waVkxI?si=Cj17DvUzk8rsFVYs

Shania Twain - Any Man Of Mine...

Wheatfield Soul is the fourth studio album by the Canadian rock band the Guess Who, released in March 1969. Their first RCA Records release, the album is also notable for being the first full-length Guess Who album to feature Burton Cummings exclusively on lead vocals, without original lead singer Chad Allan. Featuring the US top 10 hit "These Eyes", it marked the beginning of the band's international success.

Wheatfield Soul was not a commercial success. "These Eyes" was released as a single. Wheatfield Soul is the group's first psychedelic LP that also focuses on British-influenced pop and rock - Wikipedia
