I've recorded a special song this month in the Folk Den. One that you might be curious to listen to. 

When the Costa Concordia cruise ship capsized last month it brought back remembrances of the Titanic. There were far too many eerie similarities. People on board the Costa Concordia described the panic and chaos during a rather unruly evacuation in a way reminiscent of the pandemonium on board the Titanic as it sank nearly 100 years ago.

I remembered hearing this song in the Harry Smith Anthology of American Music and decided it would be fitting for the Folk Den’s February release.

There are many versions of this. I combined the two that I liked best. I hope you like it too!
