I have loved this song ever since I was a kid, What makes this artist even more special to me is the fact that Ken Tobias is from Saint John...I see him on occasions on his treks .
Wow Ken was here. I grew up in the 70's in rural Eastern Ontario as a proud Canadian I loved our homegrown artists. I felt a part of there music as if they spoke directly Ken was one of my favourites along with the late James Leroy.
I am very proud to say that Ken was at my rehearsal room last night and jammed with my band. seeing as we are a modern rock band , it was just another sign of his talent , he fit in , and was amazing... super talented...
Thank you all from the bottom of my heart for your wonderfull comments and support for my music now and all through the years. I'm still in the saddle with my new band and new CD called "From A Distance" drop in and see us sometime soon
Oh that is just beautiful. I last saw him in concert back in Saint John in the early 70's in the Saint John High auditorium. His whole family was there, a welcome home concert from a Saint John success story. I too drew pictures of wings when I was young and . . . now I am a pilot. Thank you for the memories. Cheers!
For some reason I thought it was like Saint John, I remember back before I moved to Texas someone saying he lived in Saint John, h well, still, he is a great singer/songwriter no matter where he resides.
yup...you're right ! St. John, New Brunswick , Canada....but during the 60's he lived in Nova Scotia for a very short while. Then he moved away and now lives back in St. John. He is EXTREMELY talented.... you're absolutely right!
(ignore comment from fool son) Wow, great tune from great artist. amazing piece of canadiana. where on earth did you find this? big thanks for sharing.
Such a beautiful song!

Spread your wings and fly away,
up into the wind
above the trees you glide with ease
round and back again...

This guy maybe the most under rated singer song writer of all time... He oozes more soul in one song, then I've heard in the past decade of music.

I work for a canadian courier company in Saint John NB. I had the good fortune to deliver his latest cd to his home here in SJ.

Great musician - underrated. He's every bit as talented as Gordon Lightfoot, so why wasn't he as popular? Probably had a sub-par manager.
