I didn't know what to expect when I clicked on this cover. I like to see what others do with milestone music, how they understand it and make it part of the magic that music is.....you both nailed it. The feelings... passion and hope tinged with despair. Well done!
8 years after your amazing cover, I'm listening fisherman's blues covers because is the main and first thing I will do with my ever first friend that I couldn't see since time ago...
You guys were AWESOME. Say you July 8, 2016 in Colin, Alex, Keva, Issac's back yard in Wakefield, PQ under the big blue tarp! Blew my socks off - so fun. Keep it going!!! Joy. Kevin Farrell
Superb, you capture the wildness - perfect - the guitar has the right amount of rough edge, vocals are on point - the mandolin and guitar blend wonderfully, love from Glasgow. x
Nice job guys. First time I ever heard this was a bar in Kilkenny, Ireland. The performers lit the place up. Just as you two seem to have done out there in the woods.
Allan Sedgwick Mike Scott was Scottish but was based in Ireland when this album was recorded and Steve Wickham was Irish and had a big influence on the album.
You Two are welcome . After meeting you Downtown and picking up a CD from you while playing a tune it was a MUST TO SEARCH YOU TWO OUT ! Randy Peterson
I wish I was a fisherman Tumblin' on the seas Far away from dry land And its bitter memories Casting out my sweet line With abandonment and love No ceiling bearin' down on me Save the starry sky above With light in my head You in my arms Woo! I wish I was the brakeman On a hurtlin' fevered train Crashing a-headlong into the heartland Like a cannon in the rain With the beating of the sleepers And the burnin' of the coal Counting the towns flashing by In a night that's full of soul With light in my head You in my arms Woo! Tomorrow I will be loosened From bonds that hold me fast That the chains all hung around me Will fall away at last And on that fine and fateful day I will take thee in my hands I will ride on the train I will be the fisherman With light in my head You in my arms Light in my head You in my arms
Great cover, better then the original i love this song. Please make another cover of this the audio is a bit distorted but anyways keep it up love your voices together and the ound of that guitar

I grew up with this music in the UK in the 90s, and I think this is an awesome, soulful and beautiful rendition....Killer!!!!
Brilliant guys...
Wow! great version of yours! ...from the great "Waterboys"
Great cover of a great Irish song...well done!

I wish I was a fisherman
Tumblin' on the seas
Far away from dry land
And its bitter memories
Casting out my sweet line
With abandonment and love
No ceiling bearin' down on me
Save the starry sky above
With light in my head
You in my arms
Woo!
I wish I was the brakeman
On a hurtlin' fevered train
Crashing a-headlong into the heartland
Like a cannon in the rain
With the beating of the sleepers
And the burnin' of the coal
Counting the towns flashing by
In a night that's full of soul
With light in my head
You in my arms
Woo!
Tomorrow I will be loosened
From bonds that hold me fast
That the chains all hung around me
Will fall away at last
And on that fine and fateful day
I will take thee in my hands
I will ride on the train
I will be the fisherman
With light in my head
You in my arms
Light in my head
You in my arms
GREAT COVER

where did you get your guitar? I love the grain on it! What make/model is it? or is it custom?
