It is outstanding stuff. Live, with 1960 tech. A slightly longer version of this vid has Andy Williams asking why just the one 'brother' sings and Bill Medley says "I didn't think it was a hit so now I sit in the corner and kick myself". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kragar Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I've been wanting to post something here for a few days. A couple Zep songs come to mind (Bron Yr Aur, and the ending of Over the Hills and Far Away), but then it came to me... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

REM The video in particular kills me That song lives on my MP3 player, but it had been so long since I saw the video.

4petesake Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 I came across this song when a good friend was going through a very rough patch. It was hard to hear but I the same time it gave me hope that things might turn around. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, yes, a million times yes....I first saw The Dark Island and not the Mary Duff.....so was thinking I'd quote and post her version, which to me is the ONLY version of this that bears listening to....but here you are already with it. I am astounded someone else here actually knows this song at all considering it's origins. My Scottish grandfather used to sing this to my sister and I when we were wee girls and it never fails to elicit tears no matter what mood I am in when I start listening...it's a homesickness and longing that aches.

nuckin_futz Posted June 6, 2021 Share Posted June 6, 2021 An absolutely beautiful song about a horrible event. When suppertime came, the old cook came on deck sayin'"Fellas, it's too rough to feed ya"At seven PM, a main hatchway caved in, he said"Fellas, it's been good to know ya"The captain wired in he had water comin' inAnd the good ship and crew was in perilAnd later that night when his lights went outta sightCame the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a bit of Irony here. I can't remember who but someone on this board described me as Andy Dufresne in a thread a few years back about the Israeli/ Palestinian conflict. Crawled through a river of $#@$ and came out the other side clean. One of his quotes always touches my heart,"hope is good thing,maybe the best of things,and no good thing ever dies I hope you bear no ill will because I certainly do not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything by John is great and he’s probably my favourite singer/songwriter/story-teller along with Harry Chapin, Joni Mitchell & few others. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
