Anne Murray's album cover for "Here You Are" is pictured. (Source: Universal Music Group) Anne Murray is marking a milestone… and giving fans a gift in return. The Canadian music icon turns 80 Friday and, to celebrate, she's announced a brand-new album of previously unreleased songs. 'Here You Are,' Murray's 33rd studio album, will be released on Sept. 5 and features 11 hidden gems recorded between 1978 and 1995. 'I'm still kickin'. I'm in pretty good shape, and I feel pretty good… I guess this is what 80 feels like for some people,' said Murray when asked how it feels to turn 80 by CTV Atlantic's Katie Kelly. Anne Murray Singer-songwriter Anne Murray is pictured. (Source: Universal Music Group) The album's first single, 'Rest Easy (In My Love),' is available now – a track originally recorded in 1989. The collection came together after longtime fan Lynn Holt uncovered several unreleased songs from Murray's vault. Charlie Rhindress – an author, volunteer at the Anne Murray Centre, and friend of Murray's – shared much of the back story in a social media post. 'I have been working with Anne on this release for the past year and as a lifelong Anne Murray fan, it has been one of the most exciting projects of my career,' said Rhindress. Highlights on the album include 'Bring All Your Heartaches to Me,' featuring vocals by Murray's daughter, Dawn Langstroth, and guitar work from her nephew Dale Murray. Anne shared a photo from Dale's studio last October with the caption 'back in the saddle,' which sparked a lot of speculation and excitement. Other standouts include 'Straight From the Heart,' a cover of the Bryan Adams classic, and 'Heaven in My Heart,' a song originally recorded by her brother Bruce Murray. Murray's career spans more than five decades, with over 55 million albums sold, four Grammy Awards, and a record-breaking 26 JUNO Awards – the most in Canadian history. She was also recently honoured with the JUNO Lifetime Achievement Award. 'Here You Are' will be available to stream and download, as well as on CD and vinyl, with limited edition versions available through Universal Music.

Cook This: 3 'reimagined' Jewish recipes from Arthurs, including challah French toast
Our cookbook of the week is Arthurs: Home of the Nosh by Raegan Steinberg and Alexander Cohen, co-owners of Montreal's Arthurs Nosh Bar, with writer Evelyne Eng. Article content Jump to the recipes: challah French toast, smoked salmon panzanella salad and cheese blintzes. Article content Article content Raegan Steinberg paid homage to her late father, Arthur Steinberg, with a restaurant. She and her husband, executive chef Alexander Cohen, opened Arthurs Nosh Bar in 2016. Today, Montrealers (and the occasional visiting celebrity) line up for a seat at their luncheonette. Article content Article content 'Reimagined' Jewish fare, including syrniki (Eastern European cottage cheese pancakes), latkes, challah French toast and ever-changing shakshuka, reflects their heritage: Raegan's 'Romanian-Russian-Ashkenazi' and Cohen's 'Moroccan-Spanish-Sephardic.' Article content Article content Nine years after opening Arthurs' doors, with three restaurants — including American-style bistro Romies — Raegan and Cohen (with writer Evelyne Eng) carry on Arthur's legacy in a cookbook, Arthurs: Home of the Nosh (Appetite by Random House, 2025). Article content 'I feel like maybe that was my life's purpose,' says Raegan. 'I never thought I would lose my dad, and that really shifted my whole life. And I'm so grateful that my husband was on board and willing to create this — conceptualize this whole thing we've done.' She explains that Arthur was a food lover well before the term 'foodie' took hold. Her family's life revolved around eating, the where and the what. 'From a young age, all of us were introduced to food in a way that I don't know necessarily all families were.' Article content Raegan began her culinary career in Montreal at Mandy's Gourmet Salads. After attending culinary school at the Art Institute of Vancouver, she worked at celebrated restaurants such as the Blue Water Cafe and Joe Beef. Cooking professionally became entwined with processing the trauma of losing her father. 'It was such an easy way just to forget. You're working with your hands. You put your head down. You work.' Being a chef wasn't what Raegan had expected to be doing, but she embraced it. Article content Article content Today, she oversees business development at Arthurs Nosh Bar. 'I'll always love food, making food and being creative with food. To be the best chef you can be, you need to be 100 per cent focused, and I don't think I could do that wearing all the hats. I love doing the other parts. I love working on the marketing and the branding, and I love building something from scratch and conceptualizing it.'

The summer job that put actor Tantoo Cardinal at the heart of a tiny Alberta town
After a school year away in the big city, a teenaged Tantoo Cardinal returned home to the tiny hamlet of Anzac, Alta., and fell into a summer job at the town's only store. In this latest instalment of The Globe's 'How I Spent My Summer' series, the legendary Dances with Wolves and Legends of the Fall actor and activist shares how she learned that some gigs are worth well more than the money – even at a buck an hour. I'm from Anzac, Alberta. It's just an hour southeast of Fort McMurray on the highway now, but this was 1966 before the road went in. Fort McMurray was just starting to be known as a boom town. I was 16. A year before that, I'd essentially left the Anzac community to go to high school in Edmonton, but now I was back home for the summer. I never had to look for a job in Anzac, but I always had one: I babysat, I dug potatoes on farms, I filled in at the Fort McMurray hospital answering phones for my sister-aunt – she's my grandmother's baby, nine years older than me, and I was raised by my grandmother, so that's how she became my 'sister-aunt.' I spent most of my free time hanging around the Anzac store. Anzac was a very small community and it had only one store, Willow Lake Mercantile, for everything: Groceries, clothes, supplies. We sold rope and oil for lamps and gas, eventually. Things that are useful for rural people, and we either had what they wanted or we didn't. Once a week, the train would go through from Edmonton to Fort McMurray, and that was pretty much our lifeline for outside merchandise. We got what we got. I didn't apply or anything to work at the store, because I wasn't that kind of person. But since I was there hanging around all the time anyhow, the manager would give me things to do. I'd tally up people's goods, I'd straighten things up, I'd sweep the floor and stock the shelves. Whatever had to be done. This wasn't a city store with a staff. Sometimes I'd be there all by myself managing the whole place. The summer that Joshua Jackson realized he wasn't a morning person They paid me like a dollar an hour, I think, which was better than before, when I did the same job for free. My family had briefly been keepers of the store, but other people manage it now. It was nice to earn a little bit of money, but I didn't need or buy much and wasn't all that into money anyhow. At 16, I had no sense of the value of time. The job was just something to do and I didn't mind doing it. There was nothing to love or hate about the job, I was just kind of doing life. I knew I wouldn't be there forever – it was just what I was doing right now to get by. I think this mentality helped me survive in the world of acting for a long time. Money wasn't the prominent reward; the prominent reward was being around people you wanted to be around. We counted once and Anzac only had 99 people. If someone new got off the train, it was a big deal. If we didn't know them at all, we'd call them 'beatniks,' but usually we'd find out they were connected to the community somehow and then we knew them too. I wasn't much of a salesperson because I wasn't very talkative, but I was a really good listener. With the road going in, there were so many major changes occurring all around. People from Fort McMurray would soon have access to our lake, and there was all this dust in the air from people driving in and leaving their trash around. There was this sense that things were changing and it wasn't gonna be just us anymore. It felt like the walls were coming down around this little world we had going on. This was all so different from my new life in Edmonton, which had been a bit of a culture shock, because I didn't know anybody. If you were friendly with somebody, they looked at you like there was something wrong with you and ignored you. Here, I knew everyone and had known most all of them all my life, which I recognized was very special but wouldn't last. As told to Rosemary Counter
