I thought maybe some theme based tunes might be good.
Here is one from Mountain, not Mississippi Queen, but that is another good one. This one tells the tale of the old Whaling ships. The Nantucket Sleigh Ride http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q0JrV86EKCs Give it a listen, it is a good tune and tells a great story, and Leslie West on guitar is alsways good.

Again, I can't post a link as I'm on an iPhone, but there's a fantastic box set of sea chanties sung by a collection of artists, including Loudon Wainwright, Bono, Sting, artist Ralph Steadman, Jack Shi*, Boney, and a bunch more.
I own it, and love it- but can't recall the name of it. I'll need to check back later.... -------------------- What you got back home, lil' sister, to play yer fuzzy warbles on? Pitiful, portable picnic players? Come with uncle & hear all proper! Hear angels trumpets & devils trombones. You are invited!
