This year marks the 50th Anniversary of the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald and the 120th Anniversary of the Mataafa wreck off Duluth’s Canal Park on Lake Superior. Charlie Maguire is the only songwriter ever granted passage to write about two working vessels: Nordic Trader and William Clay Ford.

From these unprecedented opportunities Charlie Maguire turned experience into songs with insightful narratives behind each one in time for these important anniversaries. In addition\, Maguire’s program includes Gordon Lightfoot’s “The Wreck Of The Edmund Fitzgerald” and Woody Guthrie’s “Merchant Marine” songs to round out a solid hour of deep water adventure. This program\, sponsored by Arrowhead Library System\, was funded in part or in whole with money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund (ACHF).
