Yep. Just learned how to play it on guitar. Really Easy! Great song and interesting and true story.
"Fitzgerald" is nothing less than epic in the annals of popular song writing. Not only a great story sung with appropriate passion, but lengthy without being drawn out or boring, kinda like Arlo Guthrie's perennial Thanksgiving favorite "Alice's Restaurant." I was a bit disappointed once when I bought a Lightfoot greatest hits called "Gord's Gold," which actually didn't contain "The Wreck" because it was released the year before "Fitzgerald's 1976 release. cNo true dilemma, however, because even without it, you still have a strong collection of highly thought provoking folk material. Good ol' Gordy still tours, God bless him for keeping the spirit of his writings an on going thing, at least for those who don't find Pitbull musically enlightening..........
I think the designation "USS" is reserved for U.S.Navy vessels.
