Anyone have a copy of the Cantus cover of The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald? I missed it Friday morning, and from iraunink's description, I'm really interested in hearing it!

I used to have a 45 of Gordon Lightfoot's version back in the 70s. It had a skip, so we had 'a crew and a captain well seasoned...seasoned...seasoned...'
(They were very well seasoned, as they kept being seasoned until you gave the record player a thump.)
iraunink described it as violin & flute accompanying, no chorus except at the very end, and a gorgeous bass voice singing the first tow verses solo, and maybe unaccompanied? IIRC, she described it as haunting. It sounds fascinating, I really want to hear it!
