Default What songs would they sing???

What songs would Gord and Jimmy record for this album??


I'm thinking Triangle, Son of a Son of a Sailor, High and Dry and I'd love them do a rendition of the old chanty "The Mermaid"

I can easily hear them doing "Cotton Jenny" and "Triangle" .

Love to see a sleeve for Triangle on that one.

I dunno about chanties, but Ron Jones has a huge repetoire of shanties in his bag of performance tunes, and would love to hear him and Gord team up...jj not big Buffet fan

confession: I'm pretty much ignorant to this entire list but neat site:

Those would be some excellent choices, amongst others.

I've also been doing some idle thinking lately, and I was thinking about just what tunes would Gordon & James Taylor sing if they were to do an album together?
