How’d this crowd miss this?

[Ol Mucky]

Arguably one of the greatest songs ever written

RIP

I've stood on Lighthouse Point while a winter storm was raging , 60 mph winds and ten degrees , which is the closest place on land to where the Edmund sank .
It was spooky , pitch dark night , zero visibility and huge waves breaking on the beach . We were on a snowmobile trip and heard on the TV it was the first time a storm of that magnitude had hit since the sinking , so we rode twenty miles to see it , and it was crazy .
Gusts' of wind would knock you backwards and the cold was unbearable , the spray was like needles hitting your face.
Sobering to think of the men on that ship knowing they were going to sink in that environment .

I love that song, it was so rough prior to the sinking that the cook could not feed them, the Fitzgerald was grossly overloaded.

Best song of the 70's!

A classic song no doubt, to say it's the best ever, well that's very subjective. I doubt I'd even say it's the best of the 70's. A great story song for sure.
