The Boards have been heavy lately. Hopefully this can lighten the mood around here. Need helpsettling a family dispute.
What is the better sailing song?
Sloop John B by the Beach Boys
or Southern Cross by Crosby Stills and Nash
(the politics of the bands doesn't matter folks)
or do you have another song? IMHO these 2 are it and its a matter of degree which one is better.
Billy Joel's River of Dreams was filmed on *my* River ... The Connecticut. Billy created quite a stir during the filming from Old Saybrook to Essex. He ran in to my god daughter and was so taken with her natural beauty, put her in the film. [I think b/c she looked a lot like Christie Brinkley] Heh. Was *big doin's* in town for a while. LOL.
Good call. First time I heard it, I was on a Dickerson 37 on a broad reach on the Chesapeake.
