Live Hip/Gord Downie Ramblings?

Does there exist a list (or downlaod link) anywhere of songs where Gord goes off on a tangent such as Highway Girl or New Orleans is Sinking?

I have heard about a version of the Hundredth Meridian about a Japanese exchange student but can not find it for my listening pleasure ...


Any leads in this info would be much appreciated.


Thank you very much!

Check out the compilation "Let's Gather 'Round The Fan" it's a lumping of many Gord rants that became poems or Hip?Downie songs. Just gave it a listen and aside from the redundancy of a lot of it, the quality we had to work with ten years ago (where did the time go...) is not as good as we have today. I thought long and hard about revisiting it with a Gather 'Round The Fan 2.0 or something...

Working on a Downie rarities compilation next after finding some discs lying around a month or so ago. Keep your ears peeled for info on that...
