Very haunting voice. Not many can pull that off. She was also painfully shy. Juan of my favorite types! That's why she couldn't look at the crowd when performing.
They sound like a 70's rock cover band.
I have been watching this old timer's videos on the Ship and the Sinking.
Interesting to me because I really hadn't heard much about it until I read this thread and watched the documentary posted in this thread. Old time has some good information and knew a bunch of people who worked on that ship, he has been in some videos starting from about 4 years ago.(15-20 or so videos with him)

The ship had to ram itself a few times into the dock shore/beach to get far enough up the dock because it ran too deep.
It is actually the second Edmund Fitzgerald Ship. The first was a nice large wooden sailing vessel...that ship also sunk.
