Lord Franklin (Traditional Sea Song)

A well known traditional song about the last voyage of Sir John Franklin that ended tragically. I learned this from an old album by Pentangle

Great playing as usual. Love your version. did you read the book "Lady Franklin's revenge"? good reading if you are into this story. BTW, because you are such a good musician, I think you should invest in a better microphone system. ROCK on Mike :0)

Just listened to your version of Lord Franklin.. perfect start to the day. .i should invest in a better visual and vocal set up... wouldn't know where to start.. and anyway.. a better camera would show the wrinkles.. Lol M:)

Ichingiching, I love your guitar work on this song. May I possibly cop the tuning?

Oh yeah, your singing pretty darn good also! Do you do "Cruel Sister". Love to hear it.
