I have just finished a new song book, Cruising Definition, which contains songs written mostly by Judy, some by both of us. Some of the music was composed by William Heuer. They are songs about our experiences cruising in the U.S. and the Caribbean. (See also Down Island now being published on my other blog site Swartsfager-books.blogspot.com or click on Down Island on right.) These songs were sung by the “Bitter End,” our sea chantey group all over the U.S. and the Caribbean. Some of the titles are The Ditch (ICW), Walking tour of Hardware Stores, Handsome Sailor, and A'roaming. Included is the music, words, information and some of my doodles. Any one with a guitar can play these songs, and to help them we will be offering a CD. This book is comming off the presses as we speak. We are very excited about the way it looks and its ease of use. It contains the full melody, chords, words, and even a CD, by the Bitter End, of eleven sea songs.
