The unrecorded song "Land with no Name" about the Canadian Metis people written by Gord for Catherine McKinnon...has anyone heard this, have a bootleg or know the lyrics?
Thanks for the help.

Land with no Name
Funny I had meant to ask about this too having as I read that title thought that I had found it included in a "Rare tracks" cd listed on freedb at:- http://www.freedb.org/freedb_search_...sc&id=c10bd10f
but I just rechecked and there is another unreleased song on that compilation:-
"Six days on the road" which is also referred to on Wayne's site
also on that compilation made by person(s) unknown is an alleged medley of Four Strong Winds /Alberta Bound which I suspect is from the Calgary Winter Olympics video and therefore is Ian Tyson singing his Four Strong Winds solo then Ian and Gord duetting on Alberta Bound. Sorry catmanron if that got your heart a fluttering and yes I'd like a copy of any of those three rarities if anyone has one plus Piddling Pete that I heard Gord sing in concert in 1968 but have so far failed to find anyone owning up to having a copy
