Barrett's Privateers - Kimber's Men

[@sunsetwinds]

After Bully in the Alley went viral I just about died seeing this. Stan Rogers is a Canadian treasure and it gave me chills hearing John sing this song. Excellent! Just excellent!

[@poundtacos4006]

That old video of stan singing this with the band Ryan's fancy is unreal!

[@johnlively6900]

No one can ever do this song like Stan Rogers. But damn these men do him justice. Fantastic, excellent...literally no words to describe how great their version of this song is.

[@myrmidonesantipodes6982]

My thoughts precisely

[@marlo2303]

The best thing about these songs is a huge number of verses because when it starts, I don't want it to finish ever. Brilliant.

[@lakecityransom]

Heard this for the first time the other day and started laughing how it just went on and on with that goddamn chorus. Great stuff.

Jamie Jepson yes, it’s been said

[@mattshaffer5935]

Outstanding 💪

[@raymondcrooke]

Great to hear this song again. Excellent performance.

I first saw Kimbers Men at the Swanage folk festival, have seen them twice since (Swanage). Being a big Floyd, Stones, Sabbath and Zeppelin fan I couldn't f****** believe how good they are. Shit hot.

[@0bleach0]

The laugh @3:48 was a good bit. Twenty-third year INDEED!

[@Genners111]

what a harmony!!!

[@Tommy1977777]

phenomenal! outstanding work! sung in the voice of a man and not a man child!

[@lilymuscu9997]

It's unbelievable to see that the vocal lead doing this while waiting to get trough his local taxes agency...

[@Mihoyminoy124]

I love kimbers men they are amazing

[@lakecityransom]

Check out the live album Kimber's Men in Port it's good. You gotta hear "Johnny Come Down to Hilo" :)

As a American we learn to shoot a bit after we learn to walk.🤠

[@blackacorn1464]

I'd like to draw attention to the delicious trans-Atlantic detail that these stout fellows are from Halifax, West Yorkshire, England.

[@mike18699-e]

Very nicely performed, but I much prefer to hear shanties sung without amplification. So long as your audience is polite and attentive, it's perfectly doable and it also allows the performers to be more animated. There's something inauthentic about having the guys all stood behind microphones.

[@BrianOfHolcombeShantyman]

Great version, Postedto Shantymen of Devon on facebook

[@Mandolorian1001]

Wonderful, but no one can beat stan roger's original

[@richkroberts]

They need a high tenor to round them out. They are wonderful though, don’t get me wrong.

[@sojetzterstmaleinkommentar9355]

that's the way

[@RichardDCook]

No-one sounds like Himself, sure enough. But I think the harmony here is better than any Stan Rogers version I've heard.

[@Mandolorian1001]

@@RichardDCook I would personally have to disagree.

[@ascii64]

Harmony is fantastic, but they draw out the end of each line too much.
