I still remember Adam and the Ants doing 'Jolly Roger' on Kings of the Wild Frontier in 1980 / 81. That was a good pirate song. Well, it was when I was 13, lol.
one for all you collab fans, find me on the collab board

So do I, that was a good sing-a-long song, although so was "Friggin in the Riggin", but you couldn't sing that in front of your Mum and Dad!!

Originally called "Good Ship Venus" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_ship_venus), I like Loudon Wainwright III's version from the compilation album "Rogue's Gallery: Pirate Ballads, Sea Songs, and Chanteys"...

I have never heard this version before 64, and its funny to hear someone else singing those lyrics.

henwrench
not heard loudon wainwright for years, his kids are doing alright too
Oh yeah great song! Thanks for sharing that 64.
Well, this is where the humble idea was birthed, the little monster saw the light of day, right here in this thread. Piratefest was born, and today it ended, sailed off into St. elmo's fire. We caught a little of the spirit, sang some manly songs, drank grog and had ourselves a grand adventure. I want to thank Henwrench for being the pirate ringleader, scourge in the sides of landlubber society everywhere and all around Bilge-sucking Corsair. I thank you from the bottom of my rum jug. It was a great festival.
