Folk standards and searching tributes to country heroes. Ramshackle family bands and haunting elementary school ensembles. Landlocked surf and off-kilter rural rock. And a devastating take on the requisite Joni song. Privately pressed and filtered through a prairie lens, it’s another trip to Saskatchewan. All covers edition.
This is the third installment in our Vintage Saskatchewan series. Find parts one, Multis E Gentibus Vires, here, and two, Prairie To Pine, here.

Hi there,
This one appears to be down. Any chance of a re-up?
(Thanks!)
Joel
Oh wait – I can play it, but, when I try to download it, it gives me a “Failed – Forbidden” error.
Hmm…
Enjoying this, thanks! Could you tell me who did the original of “PaPa” sung here by Pat Steel?
