I saw this band on October 27, 1979 at the Blarney Stone in Pittsburgh, PA. It was a great evening that I'll never forget, even if I was drinking rum and cokes, like a good sailor. These guys have always been a favorite band of mine and this song in particular is one I like to sing along too.
Just want to add that I miss you Irish; and hope you see this someday.
My boys would lay in bed saying, Daddy, sing me the fisherman song" I have it on video when they were about 3-7 singing it to Grandma Bonnie.
