United Breaks Guitars

United Airlines Song Background (short version)In the spring of 2008, Sons of Maxwell were traveling to Nebraska for a one-week tour and my Taylor guitar was witnessed being thrown by United Airlines baggage handlers in Chicago. I discovered later that the $3500 guitar was severely damaged. They didn’t deny the experience occurred but for nine months the various people I communicated with put the responsibility for dealing with the damage on everyone other than themselves and finally said they would do nothing to compensate me for my loss.

Just before the band set off to China in April, CBC television in Halifax came out to Waverley to do a profile on volunteer firefighting using Don and Dave Carroll, a.k.a. Sons of Maxwell, as the focus.

Sons of Maxwell Song Book

Don and Dave are proud to announce the release of the first ever Sons of Maxwell songbook. Titled "The Road And The Miles" this songbook contains the lyrics, melody lines and guitar chords for all of the 44 S.O.M. original songs recorded by the band, including Deli Cat and their new Drinkin' Fightin Fool. All the songs were carefully transcribed by well known Halifax musician, songwriter and arranger Scott MacMillan to the keys in which the songs were recorded, using easy to play guitar chords.
