Footnote
Michael Smith’s name appears on the front cover of the 2005 EMI Canada release
“Just Plain Folk” alongside that of Canadian vocalist John McDermott; however,
this release does not qualify as a duo recording. Supported by a band, McDermott
supplies the lead vocal on Tracks 1 – 11, none of which were composed by Smith,
while only Michael Smith’s voice and guitar are heard on Track 12 – 16.
The latter five songs were composed by Michael Smith.
