Cannery Row


Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands / Blonde On Blonde / 1967

With your sheet-metal memory of Cannery Row
and your magazine husband who one day just had to go

Cannery Row is the title and location of a (rather amusing) John Steinbeck novel. It's about the people living around a can factory in a small fishing town. It is based on a street in the town of Monterey, which is is Northern California. Monterey used to be a boomtown for sardine canning factories till the mid 40's. The neighboring town of Carmel is where Joan Baez lives.
