Subject: RE: And it's 'Frobisher Bay' by a nose From: GUEST,greg stephens Date: 19 Apr 02 - 02:16 PM I did an outdoor show in january in Baggeridge Country Park,near wolverhampton (UK).It was a sort of guided walk with enertainment along the way.It was in the middle of a seriously cold spell. So I cut a huge load of ice from one of the lakes and built an ice sculpture round a bonfire well primed with paraffin, beside another frozen lake. When the audience arrived ( in the dark) we sang "Frobisher Bay" by the lightof a wax torch and at the end I chucked the torch into the pile of ice and "Whoooomph" up shot theflames out of the ice . magic, and inspired by a truly magic song. Glad it's winning prizes.If you know James Gordon, I'd be grateful if you'ld pass this story on to him. |

Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Frobisher Bay (James Gordon) From: Joe Offer Date: 17 Jan 06 - 02:38 AM Well, for a while today, this thread was titled Frobisher Bay (Clinton Hammond). Heck, I almost believed for a moment myself that Clinton wrote it - and then I wondered if I had retitled the thread years ago, by mistake. I knew the song was the title song of an album by Tamarack - sure enough, the songwriter was James Gordon of Tamarack. I added the songwriter attribution to the lyrics Clinton posted. But if it had been written by you, Clinton, I would have had a whole new respect for you. It's a great song, even if you didn't write it. -Joe Offer- Click here for a recording (by James Gordon). |
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Frobisher Bay (James Gordon) From: JohnB Date: 17 Jan 06 - 10:30 AM One of my favourite songs. If I remember Greg I will tell James your story next time I see him, which is not that often. JohnB |
Subject: RE: Lyr Add: Frobisher Bay (James Gordon) From: Cluin Date: 09 Aug 07 - 08:11 PM Misplaced apostrophe in the first verse above: "One more whale," our captain cried "One more whale and well beat the ice." But the winter star was in the sky The sea's were rough the winds were high. should be: "One more whale!" our captain cried "One more whale then we'll beat the ice." But the winter star was in the sky The seas were rough, the winds were high. |
