Original Toronto Star caption: George cook has written 5,501 songs in 35 years and managed to have only 18 recorded. He has three suitcases full of his songsheets in a celler flat where he lives with his father. Cook calls himself the Gordie Howe of songwriters and his goal is to hit 6,000. And he says he's writing better.
