Around 1975-76 OECA (now called TVOntario) showed a program on Murray M. My memory may be way off on this, but as I remember it, it had 6 or more songs, mostly from Sweeping The Spotlight Away, and I don't recall Murray singing or playing guitar on camera, just at times being in scenes that reflected the content of the song. One I remember is him walking in front of a wall of wrecked cars while Takin' My Leave is playing. Does this ring a bell with anybody? They repeated this show many times.
I was rambling around Canada when I was 16 or so,loved Murray and the Silver Tractors,was living in Edmonton '73,they were huge back than..

Thanks for posting as that Murray Mclauchlan was the first concert I worked without any help in about 1981 or 92.
I was just wondering if anyone knew the name of the song he did for Ron Sakamoto. It was about the Asians that were moved to Alberta during WWII.

I'm German and I don't care who won the war but I love Murray McLauchlan's songs. Why not just ignore haters like him, who know nothing about music?

This song is still on the jukebox at the Kaladar Ho-tel as AA-11 in Ontario Canada logging area.
Bartend says its been worn out 50 times (now on CD) and Murray is the most often played song on that jukebox to this day.
