    Utterly delightful! Gorgeous instrument, lovely arrangement and performances by both.

    I must admit to feeling a smidgeon of disappointment that the song performed was not this "Bold Fisherman," a charming ditty, of which Humphrey Bogart's character in "The African Queen" (my favorite movie) seems to have been quite fond. It comes up two minutes in:



    The folk tradition allows for the existence of more than one song with the same title, and other inhstances of plurality. I daresay the selection by Mayor and James was of a higher standard of quality. But for the sake of fun, I had been hoping ...

    Oh my! That's wonderful! I saw that while searching for the above clip, but was focused on finding a clip from the film. He also sings it right at the end, with Kate, swimming off into the sunset (as it were). Couldn't find that. But thanks for playing along and posting that.
