Call Arnold Slick From Turtle Crick

Category: So-Called Radio Humor || By Jason Togyer

I've mentioned before one of my favorite shows is the Canadian sitcom "Corner Gas."

The other day, I watched the Season 4 episode called "The Good Old Table Hockey Game," which incorporates "The Hockey Song" by the great folk singer Stompin' Tom Connors.

Well, then I listened to Mike Lange call Game 3 of the Stanley Cup Finals, and one thing led to another ...

Anyway, the tape-splicing elves at Tube City Omnimedia's World Headquarters were busy all night Friday and into Saturday morning.

Enjoy, if that's the word, but please credit the Almanac, and don't use it for commercial purposes:

"The Hockey Song" by Stompin' Tom Connors (with Mike Lange) MP3, 2.8MB (re-edited 7:30 p.m.)

Now I'm going to bed, and if I'm lucky, I'll dream happy thoughts about Gabrielle Miller.

And if I'm unlucky, I'll be dreaming of Stompin' Tom's lawyers.

Where can I download the original? (legally of course!)

A little Google-fu turns up several versions on YouTube, but your best bet is to buy the CD “Souvenirs,” either at Stompin’ Tom’s website, or from Amazon.com.

A lot of his songs are very Canadian-centric, but they’re also a lot of fun, and there are some gems (“To It and At It,” “Bud the Spud,” “Blue Nose,” “Sudbury Saturday Night,” etc.):
