The Dutchman By Bob Shane (Of The Kingston Trio)

[djl1098]

The unequaled baritone voice of Bob Shane. Never get tired of listening!

I have had the Liam Clancy/Tommy Makem version of this on their vinyl double album and have always loved it. It's good to hear another version by Bob Shane from the beloved Kingston Trio. MPS YOU ARE A GENIUS

Bob Shane's version of this song is the best!

@dutchman909 - I have neglected to thank "mps" for adding his comment here. "MPS" is Michael Peter Smith, who wrote this song many years ago and thus gave us, the music-loving public, one of the classic acoustic pieces of the whole folk era from 1940 onward. Michael has been good enough to link my article on this song on his own website (just Google his name). If you Google "Comparative video 101 the Dutchman," you'll get to the article with 10 versions of the song, including Michael's own.

Nobody but nobody delivers a song better or more convincingly than Bob Shane.

He always knows what he's singing about.

Bob Shane does The Dutchman absolutely perfectly...The Dutchman aspired to be a KIngston Trio song all along and I am so grateful that this very definitive and beautiful recording exists, and so happy that it can be heard here. Thank you Bob, and God bless The Kingston Trio....love, MPS
