      Geoff Bosco the first line is wrong, he simply sings the wrong notes for “to the sea”... the rhythm is consistently execrable, the second iteration of “so fine so young” ends horribly flat, where is your ear?

    I have been a huge S.D. fan since 1973 and I must say, this is so well done that it's hard to believe at first...but...@3:14 chills ran down my body. It IS that beautifully done. Babylon Sisters is not an easy piece to play right (I guess none of them really are) but Sam Bidgood & Co. nails it. It's a shame that more people haven't found out how good this ensemble REALLY is. So professional.
