Cooper Harbor, Mi, and Sturgeon Bay, Wi- "The Wreck of The Edmond Fitzgerald" Gordon Lightfoot.
Technically it went down a lot closer to Sault Ste. Marie... back in elementary school we used to go on field trips to White Fish Point, which is the closest bit of land to wear it sunk. The Valley Camp ship museum in Sault Ste. Marie, where I had my first ever job at age 15, has some of the Fitzgerald's lifeboats.
OK this is fun, I got a bunch. Most are pretty obvious some a little less so. I tried to give the artist as well but some have been recorded so many times (e.g. Sweet Home Chicago) I just gave the original composer. NYC and LA were hard cuz there are so many...
