Author of the new book The Legendary Horseshoe Tavern: A Complete History David McPherson joins me for a chat in Episode 49 of No Sleep ’til Sudbury. The book is an excellent testament to one of Canada’s greatest all-time live music institutions, The Horseshoe Tavern in Toronto.

We discuss the 70th anniversary of the ‘Shoe and some of the really great shows that have taken place there, and why live music is still so important today. We also chat about my favourite John Prine tune, KD Lang’s incredible voice, The Black Crowes, and my beloved Joni Mitchell.
 

McPherson’s playlist:

John Prine – Hello In There

KD Lang – Hallelujah

Neil Young – Cortez The Killer

Jimmy Buffett – He Went To Paris

Joni Mitchell – The Circle Game
