Smooth Sailing: Don’t Tip The Boat Over

- December 04, 2019

The other day I saw the movie Fisherman’s Friends, which is about ten fishermen from Cornwall, whose debut album of fisherman’s songs surprisingly went into the UK top ten. There’s a key scene in the movie when the female protagonist talks about the joy of listening to a vinyl record. She thinks that’s the only way to learn more about the artist and she’s convinced that Steve Jobs spoiled that pleasure when he started selling single tracks of an album. And a few seconds later there’s a love scene, while Rock The Boat by The Hues Corporation is on the record player. So that’s where the inspiration came from 😊 Enjoy this fresh new episode of Smooth Sailing!
