i served aboard canada's ice breaker CCGS Louis S. St-Laurent...and stan was the soul and the minstrel of our ship...even tho he set foot aboard. His music kept us at it many times when we wanted to give up. god bless him.
Thank you for posting. I have tears in my eyes as I haven't heard this in so long. This is the tune that turned me on to Stan many New year's eves ago. Partying away, this guy says listen to this. For the first time in my life I was utterly speechless. I made him play it 3 more times and thus began an odyssey of discovering this treasure's music.
Cause we're homeward bound from the Arctic ground with a good ship taut and free, and we won't give a damn when we drink our rum with the girls of Old Maui..
Thank you ! I had a lot of pleasure listening to this, and to "Harris and the Mare". My own tapes of Stan Rogers were lost thirteen years ago or so. I still sing his songs, and taught them to my kids, but now they can hear him.
This has to be in every chanteyman's seachest for sure. Stan did one best versions of this song I've ever heard and my favorite. Thanks for putting this up !
Excellent song. Stan had such a powerful voice, yet so controlled, A talent that's very rare in the music industry these days. However newfiefiddler does a pretty good cover of this song.
My cup runneth over, bytor: "Old Maui" and "Flowers of Bermuda", both sung by Stan himself, not to mention some new pictures. Thanks for sharing, you've made me very happy.
@McGrenzer thanks for the comments, i have been combing thru my stan rogers tunes and been adding ones that were not on youtube. make sure to check out "Harris and the Mare". i just added it yesterday. :)
