Review

Lee Murdock's eleventh CD, continues his musical journey on the Great Lakes, from the days of sail to contemporary 21st century events and issues. 14 new songs.

From the liner notes of the title song, Lee Murdock writes: Sometimes in the summer, when it is very still, Lake Superior settles down and its surface takes on a mirror-like quality. At night, the stars can look so close in the clean air, and when they reflect off of this "mirror", it creates the illusion of sailing in space, with stars above you and below you. Captain Ed Baganz related this phenomena to me when he spoke of his years of service sailing for the Pittsburgh Steamship Company (aka "Tin Stackers"). He also related how hard it was to be away from family and friends, wheeling his way down the Lakes season after season. I know how much thinking I do behind the wheel, myself. And I don't even have to deal with port and starboard, most of the time.
