Why, am I treated so bad? (live) | Cannonball Adderley Quintet | Walk Tall |
In the spectrum of popular music in Canada, which is as wide as the country, Tom Cochrane falls somewhere between an electrified Gordon Lightfoot and a solo Gordon Downie.
Between the universal prose of Leonard Cohen and the blood passion of Tom Wilson.
Three times we went to the war-torn fields and roads of Africa for World Vision and became lifelong friends. That’s what seeing men, women and children dead or dying will do to you. You seek humanity. Tom’s got humanity in spades.
He came back from the first trip under a heavy dark load and sought out the only thing that he knew would lift him up. Music. He wrote a song called Life is a Highway. It became an anthem for millions. All lifted up by his music.
Tom Cochrane is heading back West now. The tour is called Duo.
Friday night in Medicine Hat, Saturday night in Edmonton (Expo Centre)
Then to the coast and a complete tour of Vancouver Island.
Wednesday Victoria
Thursday Courtney
Friday Nanaimo
Sunday Campbell River
Monday, Nov 20 – Duncan (in the Cowichan)

The Trans Canada Highwaymen
Well, two of them anyway
Steven Page (BNL/Trio) and Chris Murphy (Sloan)
Oct 14 – Susan Tedeschi (Tedeschi Trucks Band) Celebrates the 25th year of her second solo album Just Won’t Burn. (1998)
It kickstarted her career as a female blues singer/player/writer and sold outstanding numbers. Susan was nominated for a Grammy for Best New Artist. Rave reviews followed – comparing her to Janis Joplin and Bonnie Raitt.
Speaking of Bonnie, Susan absolutely nails John Prine’s Angel from Montgomery which Bonnie made famous. John told Susan it was his favourite version.
Shortly after releasing Just Won’t Burn, Susan was to meet and fall in love with Derek Trucks and the rest is music history.
The new re-release also has outtakes, alternate takes and two of her songs re-done live in New York by Tedeschi Trucks.
Along with Dave Grohl, Gloria and Emilio Estevan, Susan was honoured by The Smithsonian Institute for “distinguished contributions to the advancement of areas of interest to the institution”

An icon, a high-profile leader for indigenous nations, a legendary singer/songwriter, Oscar winner, Order of Canada recipient, Juno winner.
Apparently, that’s not good enough for CBC Television.
Their flagship investigative show Fifth Estate has accused Buffy of not being ingenious. A pretender.
Because Buffy and I were talking about her documentary Carry It On, she made a point of talking about her childhood and adoption.
I’ve known Buffy for a very long time. She has represented indigenous nations most of her life. She lived her life and spoke her truth.
This interview has been quoted in various articles.
Please have a listen and find your truth.
I’ve got Buffy’s words and music. Good enough for me.
Thank You

This weeks terrydavidmulligan YouTube is a tour with music from the heart.
Every year, just about this time, Barney Bentall gathers up friends and hits the road with a travelling barn burner. Everyone on stage is the leader of their career or a band. There are at least 16 artists in this years Express. AND best of all, they’re raising funds for the charities listed below.
Barney Bentall writes his own introduction. This was his newsletter a week ago.
Hi ya all. Gearing up for the Cariboo Express shows. Depending on how we mark the birth of this whole thing, it’s the 18th or 19th year! I think for all of us that play in this big ol’ badass band, it is a musical highlight of our year.
With the help and hard work of some worthy charities, we’ve managed to raise over 5 million dollars over the years.
Here are the dates:
Come on out! There are always great guests that show up along with all the regulars. For those of you in the Toronto area, spread the word. This will be our second year and we want to keep coming back and develop what we have going out west. We are supporting Classroom Champions at the Glenn Gould show. Cheers and see you soon! Barney

Buffy’s first comment was “How long have we been doing this Terry?” We cover off the film, why touring can be a hard road.
Early days in Greenwich Village NYC. Her role in the indigenous community. Reveals why she’s been so committed to tribal education. Lots of other stories.

Tom brings his music to Calgary Festival Hall October 19 and Festival Place Sherwood Park Edmonton Friday Oct 20.
He’s been just a tad busy. A new documentary, two new albums. An Indigenous Scholarship program.
Named to the 2024 Order of Canada list. Working on BARK music. Reuniting his 90’s band Junkhouse and re-releasing their 30-year-old Strays album. And his art has exploded up and out.
Tom Wilson and Terry David Mulligan
Writing lately with Daniel Lanois, Terra Lightfoot and Colin James.
There’s another book coming and Lee Harvey Osmond things.
And that’s why we have him guesting. To support this up-and-coming new artist!!!
Next week – Barney Bentall and Cariboo Express
Two weeks – Susan Tedeschi – celebrating the 25th anniversary of Just Won’t Burn.
Her second album earned her a Grammy Nomination and started her career.
Barney Bentall is a quick 2-3 minutes. Tom Wilson is slightly longer. (As befitting a member of the Order of Canada.)
Both have dates in Calgary and Edmonton over the next couple of weeks.
Tom with a trio including his son Thompson.
Barney is touring with Cariboo Express. (18-19 years now)

Simon Kendall – Doug/Slugs
Almost 15 members in total.
Every show has a surprise guest. (In Calgary it’s William Prince)
Buffy’s documentary Carry It On has been nominated for an International Emmy Award. Only one from Canada. She’s stopped touring. Reflects on her life shown on screen and surprisingly what was left out. Awards Nov 20.
Susan Tedeschi has rereleased her 25-year-old second solo album Just Won’t Burn.
She remembers that back then there were really only two female solo artists trying to break through in the blues. She and Bonnie Raitt.
The album includes original tracks, outtakes and newer versions of original songs done live by Tedeschi Trucks Band. She was also awarded recognition from the Smithsonian Institute.
The complete interviews with Buffy and Tom will be found on Mulligan Stew Podcast and the TerryDavidMulligan YouTube Channel
