Stompin’ Tom Releases 50th Album!
The Canadian music legend, Stompin’ Tom Connors, has released his 50th album and I just think that is a remarkable achievement. I don’t know if I can do 50 pushups but this man has managed to make that many records.
His latest, The Ballad of Stompin’ Tom, features 16 tracks (12 new) which focus mostly on what it’s like to be a Canadian. Gotta love that! It also includes freshly recorded versions of old classics like “The Hockey Song,” “My Hockey Mom” and “The Olympic Song.”
The Ballad of Stompin’ Tom Tracklisting:
1. The Olympic Song
2. The Hockey Song
3. My Hockey Mom
4. Bride & Groom Waltz
5. Lady Slipper
6. The Cowboy’s Broken Ring (aka Broken Wedding Ring)
7. Rose of Silver Falls
8. My British Columbian Home
9. Kevin Barry
10. Birth of The Texas Gulf Mine

12. Bush of Buctouche (aka the “DOOT” Song)

And, for good measure (and to fill my need as a hockey fan), here’s a video of him singing “The Hockey Song” at last year’s NHL awards:
