Not the reigning authority, but certainly an admirer. This is the first of Jon's songs that I felt would work better as a straight nostalgia song, rather than warping it further if that were possible. Maybe I just have too strong a memory of the old coastal tankers and freighters that used to make their way up the Kennebec River, and was too lazy to write my own song. If I ever decide to record it, I'll touch base with Jon and see what he thinks.

I do have several of his cassettes, some of which are released on his CD KEEP ON FISHIN' and available from Wooden Ships Music Catalog: www.woodenshipsmusic.com

Cheerily,
Charley Noble
