Title: Fogarty's Cove
Condition: New
Format: Vinyl
Description: In 1976, Rogers recorded his debut album,Fogarty's Cove, launching a career that remains a vibrant and engaging audience even today, 41 years after his death. The album is entirely based around Maritime living and contains his most famous sea shanty "Barrett's Privateers," sung acapella with The Friends of Fiddler's Green providing the voices of the ship's rowdy crew. The album established the two common themes found within Stan's lifelong work: life on the sea and the endangered traditions of a specifically Canadian experience. This album includes fan favourites "Make And Break Harbour" and "Giant." The recording has remastered and is 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.
