THE COWBOY AND THE DREAMER - The Very Best of Ian Tyson and Gordon Lightfoot

Songwriter Stephen Palmer honours Canada's two most iconic balladeers- Ian Tyson and Gordon Lightfoot. From FOUR STRONG WINDS And SOMEDAY SOON to EARLY MORNING RAIN, THE CANADIAN RAILROAD TRILOGY and WRECK OF THE EDMUND FITZGERALD, these timeless melodies and sweeping storylines captured and defined an emerging Canadian identity. Ian and Gord's songs have inspired generations of Canadian and International songwriters to tell their own stories to the world.

With his smooth finger style guitar and jangling 12 string veteran folk performer Stephen Palmer pays loving tribute to these legends, bringing his own personal appreciation to these musical treasures.

As a child of the 1960's, Stephen Palmer was inspired by these Folk Legends to take up an acoustic guitar and begin his own musical journey. With a decade spanning career as a working musician Steve has four albums of his own Tyson and Lightfoot inspired songwriting featured on popular folk music shows like Vinyl Café.
