In Winnipeg, my prairie home, it's Folk Fest weekend. Did you know that we have the largest folk festival in North America? I'm not attending this year, but still my mind is ringing with folk songs I hold dear and close to my heart, for one or for many reasons.

Daniel Lanois is to me the ideal of what encompasses the word artist, and I would like to share as much of how I come to believe that with you this weekend. Tell me what you see . . .
