A song for Patrick O'Brian fans

I recommend checking out Jed Marum's album Soul of a Wanderer. The first song, "Desolation Island," tells the haunting tale of the wreck of the Waakzaamheid from Patrick O'Brian's novel Desolation Island. It's a lovely work which you can buy by itself as an .mp3, or with the rest of the album. Heard about it on the Irish and Celtic Music podcast. Thanks to marcgunn for the heads up.



Edited to add: Found it on Youtube on Jed Marum's channel, so you listen. Words are below:
