Summary: <br> It’s time to get some solid<br> recommendations from Eric Reanimator for great compilations on Episode 19 of<br> Love That Album: The Compilation Edition.<br> <br> <br> <br> Both albums focus on<br> Canadian troubadour Stomping Tom Connors, probably most famous for The Hockey<br> Song. The first album is called Bring Your Own Plywood and features Calgary<br> rock and country artists recording cover versions of songs written by Connors. Artists<br> such as Agriculture Club, Knucklehead, and The Spam Avenger line up to record<br> their favourite tunes from his monstrously large songbook.<br> <br> <br> <br> Then Eric talks<br> about Unreleased Songs from the Vault Collection, Vol. 1 where Connors himself<br> records some of his favourite classic country and folk songs he originally sang<br> when he started out in the fifties. Using just his guitar and voice, he turns<br> his focus to well known and loved songs such as the Darktown Strutter’s Ball,<br> Truck Drivin’ Man, and Swanee River. Originally planned to be a 10 volume set,<br> Connors unfortunately passed away after only the first volume was released.<br> <br> Thanks<br> again to Eric for another fine program.<br> <br> <br> <br> You can download the show by searching for Love That Album in<br> the iTunes store or downloading streaming directly from <a href="http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com/">http://lovethatalbum.blogspot.com</a><br> <br> <br> Send the show feedback at rrrkitchen@yahoo.com.au (written or<br> mp3 voicemail) or join the Facebook group at <a href="http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum">http://www.facebook.com/groups/lovethatalbum</a><br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> If you enjoy what you hear, please tell a friend or ten<br> to tune in.<br> <br> <br>
