40 years ago, today...the Edmund Fitzgerald sank. The event memorialized by Gordon Lightfoot.
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy

Written on an airplane after he heard the news. Great tune.

If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her"

Fantastic song. Don't think I'll ever tire of hearing it, still is haunting. Spent a couple summers on the Great Lakes as a kid.
