Two Canadian icons join forces and become partners in music.

One is/was Gord Downie. Lead singer and songwriter of The Tragically Hip.

Truly beloved. And hugely missed after losing his fight to cancer but went out in a blaze of  songs with The Hip and the last Cross Canada Tour.

The other is Bob Rock. Known for his production work with Metallica, Bon Jovi, Aerosmith, Ron Sexsmith and The Tragically Hip.

Bob tells the story of how they became friends and how Gord contacted him and asked if he had any tracks he hadn’t used because he had  words he hadn’t used..” so let’s put them together”

The album took years to complete but when they last met. Gord says to Bob “Please finish it”

Bob told us “ I had to fulfill the promise “

Ep 27 | Michael Barclay Authour of The Never-Ending Present. The Story of Gord Downie and The Tragically Hip Podcast

hello



Oct 13, 2018
This week on the podcast, author Michael Barclay talks to Terry David Mulligan about his latest book: The Never-ending Present: The Story of Gord Downie and the Tragically Hip.
“This is not just a story of a band, I think is a story about culture and how we talk about it,” says Michael about his new book. Michael tells us about Gord’s resistance to being considered “Captain Canada”, how The Tragically Hip remained intact and vital for more than 30 years, and the celebration that was The Hip’s Man Machine Poet Tour. Plus, Barclay reflects on one of Downie’s final solo releases Secret Path, his entry into artistic activism, and how the band’s music bound the country together.
