A good interpretation of a beautiful song.... and the bearskin seems too new, isn't it?

P.S. Sorry, but my previous comments has too many typos!
No problem- one click of a button, and the first post is gone forever!
I had the same thought about the bearskin. But on reflection, and given what the cost of a reproduction bearskin must be, if it were mine I'd be extremely reluctant to let it roll around in the dust and mud, no matter how authentic that may have been!

Québécois/french canadian are the only one still usign it in that sense.
