I have this playing over and over so I'm in on the mariners tales. Plus I was merchant marine with the MSC Far East 7th fleet! SAR swimmer too and a shellback! Love Sturgil Simpson.

Great song and story! I’m a sucker for a good sea shanty.
Really enjoyed your singing and guitar playing. Very nice!1 -
Yeah, a sea shanty. i haven't heard one for a while. This is excellent. Good clear vocals and a simple but effective acoustic guitar. I really enjoyed this.😀

Thank you samiamiamsam, I have a few more shanty-like songs to come, which I wrote. And i will cover some in the future. Seems I found something I really enjoy writing and covering...:-)

Thx Chris, once I manage to use Audacity correctly, I'll add some new ones, both covered and self written. I'm slowly getting into this kind of music...:-)

This is awesome @StefPo ! Your vocals match the guitar perfectly and the songwriting is great. I love writing like this. I struggle to write so directly and tell a good story. I'm always impressed when someone can do this and keep me wanting to listen.

The entire production is awesome. I love the one voice and one acoustic guitar approach and that little lick you do in the intro.
Sometimes the minimalist approach is best.

Good one Stefan. Captures that sea shanty tone and a nice lift on the chorus. You tell the story simply and directly in keeping with the tradition of this kind of song. And as a Scot, I can't help but appreciate the name of the ship, The Bannockburn :)

Ja, I can understand that. An important battle...That's why I got interested in the Ship, because of its name. thx for your kind words...

Hi @StefPo
Wow, what a great song! Your voice is perfect for this folk/shanty style. The guitar is beautiful, both in playing and in recording. I’ve been listening to a lot of Ashley Hutchins recently and this would fit right in on an Albion Band album.
Great story telling. Top work.
