13. Wasn't That a Mighty Storm (live) (Tom Rush)
Song time: 5:20
Songwriters: Eric Von Schmidt, Tom Rush
Based on an old spiritual, the song is about the 1900 Galveston hurricane, which remains the deadliest natural disaster in United States history, responsible for an estimated 6,000 to 12,000 fatalities. A rousing singalong about a sad subject. Some great Bromberg slide guitar.
