Scott Dunsworth Posted September 21, 2011 Posted September 21, 2011 I think messing-about in boats needs a theme song! This is my vote. Scott 1 Quote
Dig Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Scott, you've hit that nail on the head! Sounds like Graham commissioned Jimmy to write it especially. Get's my vote. P.S. I was at the concert at Sydney's Horden Pavilion early this year when, at the end of the concert, Jimmy came forward to say thanks to the audience, and he just walked off the front of the stage! Remember? Taken to hospital. And he didn't go on to do his concert in Auckland, New Zealand a few days later. Memorable night though, and not just for the stage dive, he and his band were fabulous.

Frank Hagan Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 I wonder how much Jimmie would charge us for making it our official song? Quote
Ken_Potts Posted September 22, 2011 Posted September 22, 2011 Hopefully Jimmy wouldn't charge too much since it's a Guy Clark song It's the title track from his 1992 album. I highly recommend the whole album. Quote
Greg Luckett Posted September 24, 2011 Posted September 24, 2011 Ken, which album would that be? Thanks. Quote
rattus Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 The Buffett version was from "License to Chill" - his crossover country album (2004); that performance was a collaboration with Alan Jackson. As was his other boatbuilding essential song, "It's Five O'Clock Somewhere" ;-) Somehow I like it better than the Guy Clark version (the original author). Jerry Jeff Walker did a version too.

Ken_Potts Posted September 26, 2011 Posted September 26, 2011 Hi Greg, The Guy Clark album was called "boats to build" - One of my favorite albums. Quote
