Listen to “Drunken Sailor”, Freedom CD Update
“Drunken Sailor” was one of the early songs I learned in my music career. The Brobdingnagian Bards released our version back in 2001.

What Do You Think of This Celtic Podcast Shirt Design?
I wanted to come up with a new shirt design for the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. This is the result. What do you think? Might make a good bumper sticker too, huh? Incidentally, I plan to use that same phrase for a CD of traditional Celtic songs. More on that to come.
