Gord Downey acting and reading Al Purdy ("the Canadian Bukowski"). An essential piece of Canadiana.
That was totally fun for so many reasons. Gord Downey is a rock star (The Tragically Hip) and Al Purdy is, well, RIP Al. I went to my bookshelf to see if I had "I'm a Sensitive Man" in a Purdy book there. I found what might have been Al's last poetry book (1997), signed, so we must have been hanging out or something.An essential piece of Canadiana.
adob - a few Canadians have found their way to hubski. Always good to have more Canadian ears and voices.
