ative Stephanie: Thomson the and/or instrument overdubs, the P for production quotient is invalid. According to the CRTC regulations, the track must be wholly produced in Canada. There is also some confusion over the use of both SOCAN and ASCAP writers, which doesn't necessarily negate the M for music and the L for lyrics. If a Canadian writes half of each, the two halfs add up to one and, coupled with the A for artist, who is a Canadian, the track has at least two - parts Cancan. A radio station could be held accountable by the CRTC if they were below their 30 per cent Cancon requirement because of misinformation. Nevertheless, it would appear that most tracks here would qualify as two -parts Cancon. Thomson has a gentle, prodding vocal delivery that kicks in on first listen. She can honky-tonk and two-step with ease.

Still, if some music is largely forgotten, why is that so? Could it be that it was no more enjoyable when first MOONSHINE MUSIC CLUB INTERNATIONAL composed than it is now?
