Allison Seamark

This a beautifully done video. One of my favorite Stan songs

Bob Boise III

Rogers sang of the death of the fisherman culture in E Canada....Tyson sings of the death of the Cowboy/Western life.....what will we become when we have lost all ties to nature.

Whoever made this video should have avoided the fake antique film effects. Just because an option exists, doesn't mean it should be used. Hipsters and their so-called "authenticity".....

This song means a lot to the lobster fisherman in rural Nova Scotia. My family was in the business but because of the problems shown in the song we all moved away to cities and farms across Canada. As of now we only own a small piece of land along the Northumberland strait which we have a summer cottage on.

Stans music is the most beautiful I have ever heard. Where are the musicians at today? Does anything like this exist in the new generation of singers and song writers? I can't say how much this music speaks to me, as a younger man embracing a rural existence and more traditional life. We don't have fishing fleets or ships here, but the spirit is similar, as are our challenges. As soon as I get my new house fixed up, I'm going to buy at least one of his CDs. His memory and family deserve it.

You pieces are moving and get at a true kind perception and caring. Hope to find any recordings you may have made with a search. Great stuff and may you find the voice to write and record many more. The world needs more of this and less of the shallow pop crap.

Best song to listen to!

The DVD "One Warm Line" by Kensington combines a concert and interviews of him, his family and friends. And a book "Northwest Passage" available from the Fogarty Cove website, has a bio, and the story behind some of his songs. His wife, Ariel monitors that site.

Saw Garnett a couple of weeks ago, and it all came tumbling back.....I'll miss this man forever. Such a great loss.

reflects the hard times of the folks here in nova scotia. My father died a fisherman, with not a penny to his name. Only his pride and the respect the boys had for the old crotchety bugger. Rest his soul, anyhow.

Carol Cripps

There's a little corner in heaven where there's a session going on...Bert Jansch is there, and Doc Watson, and Johnny Cash, and others...and they're all listening to Stan sing this.

What a great song. I know nothing of his world, just the feelings that go with it

BREATHTAKING. A SAD LOSS TO ALL.

I don't know either way which is true, but I do know that just because a person is holding a lecture doesn't mean that they have their facts straight or that they aren't repeating myths. The important point in their case is that it COULD be true. Not that it IS. I'd like to think it is.

reminds me of when i was younger. my dad used to play this late nights when I was out on his boat for a month every summer. just positive memories brought back with this music. I love it just as much as I did when I was little. thanks for the post

I can't listen to this song without seeing Halifax harbor at night, the lights glistening on the gentle waves. I get home sick just thinking about it. I really need to get out of Alberta

Michael Neville

Now I can see the big draggers have stirred up the bay Leaving lobster traps smashed on the bottom And they think it don't pay to respect the old ways That make and break men have not forgotten This song was written over 30 years ago. The commercial fishing situation has gotten worse since then.

Last month, CBC radio out of St. John's had an appeal for people who may be still operating "Make and Break" motors, or had stories about using them in the past. As a come-from-away, I had no idea "Make and Break" (aka "one-lunger") referred to the one-piston motor brought in ~1913 - (not faster than rowing, but it conserved energy). The Shanneyganock version of this song played after the appeal. A Newfoundland fishing anthem - unbelievable for a Nova Scotian, let alone a Hamiltonian.

Many years ago, but years after the tragedy, I took an Emergency Response course at Arnprior, ON. The lecture about Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome used the Cincinnati Plane Fire as an example of people's various responses to collective trauma. The lecturer referred to a Canadian entertainer who went back into the burning plane - again and again - helping people out. Stan went back one too many times and died a Canadian Hero.
