Now I’m 64 - Allison Crowe and Band - Heirs + Grievances
Reflecting now with home-movies of
Allison Crowe and her delightful
rendition of a song that’s one of the
treasures of Canadiana renewed by “Newfoundland
Vinyl”, Theatre Newfoundland
and Labrador’s much-loved hit.
This year’s edition of “Vinyl” has
begun rehearsals in prep for a
“greatest hits” run this Summer at the
Gros Morne Theatre Festival,
June 11 – September 2, 2016:

“Now I’m 64” is a traditional
Newfoundland parlour song – here
delivered by Allison Crowe and Band on
their debut release, “Heirs
+ Grievances”. Earlier
variants include recordings by Atlantic
Canada musical legends Ryan’s Fancy,
Harry Hibbs and more. The invaluable
lyrics and video site “GEST Songs of
Newfoundland and Labrador” has plenty
to help us cherish an history that’s,
joyfully, tunefully alive today:
