Stan Rogers' most loved song is undoubtedly "Northwest Passage" -- a timeless composition that seamlessly intertwines historical exploration with personal introspection. Love of the land, the heartbreak of a poor crop, the constant lack of money... Stan is able to capture it in a way that touches the heart. In 1995, when Peter Gzowski of CBC's national radio program Morningside asked Canadians to pick an alternate national anthem, "Northwest Passage" was the overwhelming choice of his listeners.
The album of the same name is a poetic odyssey that takes listeners through the expansive landscapes of Canada, with stops in each province. The album includes fan favourites "The Field Behind The Plow," "The Idiot," "Workin' Joe" and "Free In The Harbour." Remastered and reissued by Borealis Records.
It is testament to Stan Rogers' impact as a songwriter that 40 years after his sudden tragic death in 1983 at the young age of 33 - people young and old are still singing his songs and celebrating his influence. Stan Rogers received the Diplome d'honneur from the Canadian Conference of the Arts, and in 2019, he posthumously joined the Canadian Songwriters Hall of Fame, adding to his list of accolades. In 2021, Canada Post paid tribute to his legacy by featuring him on a postage stamp series. Each year, folk enthusiasts from across North America gather at the Stan Rogers Folk Festival in Canso, Nova Scotia, to celebrate its namesake. The profound impact of Stan Rogers' music and lyrics continues to inspire and influence musicians worldwide.
