08 Jul 02 - 02:42 PM (#744490) Subject: Kinship? Wanabe Sailors From: GUEST,Nick I have a recording of a tune I was told is called Wanna be Sailors, by a band called Kinship. I am trying to find what album it is from, or any reference to it for that matter. I do a Google search for lyrics from the song and get notthing! The 'sailors "live in the highlands, surrounded by mountains, we carry the spirit, but we don't have a boat, and if we did who would be captain, and if we did where would we go?..... (and) we'll dance with the lasses who'll come by the masses, if we never reveal that we dont have a boat ...etc" Funny tune, I just cant figure out where it comes from, and so who do I turn to the catters, ring any bells? Nick wanna be lots of things! |

18 Oct 08 - 01:02 AM (#2468891) Subject: RE: Kinship? Wanabe Sailors From: GUEST,Monika Mackenzie I NEED TO BUY THEIR CD!!! Have been searching for years... the website only has the option to purchase their 3rd release album which I'm not a huge fan of... Does anyone know where the first two albums can be purchased? Thanks in Advance!!! I'm a huge Celtic music fan and would really love to add this to my collection!!!!!!!! |

18 Oct 08 - 02:39 AM (#2468925) Subject: RE: Kinship? Wanabe Sailors From: Anglo Ha. Not only does their website only give the option of the third CD, when you follow that link, it is listed as unavailable! So all their CDs seem to be unavailable. Jim Lad, since you're such a close friend, why don't you look into this and let us know why an interested person can't acquire ANY of their CDs? |

An excellent ensemble of jaunty celtic tunes!

14 Jun 11 - 11:49 AM (#3170489) Subject: RE: Kinship? Wannabe Sailors From: GUEST,Dee I have this CD. I don't have any idea how to get it to any of you. I would be willing to do so if any of you have ideas that don't entail me breaking copyright laws and going to jail. :0) It may be that this thread is too old and most of you have lost interest.... but if no, post your ideas and email on here and I will check back periodically. Thanks. |

20 Aug 20 - 08:35 AM (#4068933) Subject: RE: Kinship? Wannabe Sailors From: GUEST,Rob I have been looking for a band called Kinship that my best friend and I would listen to as kids. I am hoping this is the same band, and even this many years later they can still be heard. Please make some copies of their CDs and mail them or digital downloads, cheers all for working on this. email is crazyrjh gmail, if you do check back again. I'll try to keep an eye out for an email. Not sure how safe it is to post an email here tho. |

11 Nov 21 - 07:55 PM (#4125913) Subject: RE: Kinship? Wannabe Sailors From: GUEST,Mush Saw this band in Fraser Lake, BC many years ago, maybe late 90s? Understood some band members were from there, but I think they are now considered a Kelowna band. Bought the cd and played it quite a bit. Love Wanna be Sailors and their version of I Will Go. The album was called First Born. My kids can actually sing a couple of their songs, so the next generation is enjoying them! |
