Oh no,don't do this to me Albion!! (I'm trying to save!!) I've been telling myself that I'm going to buy this when it (if it was ever) released! I must admit to not having been too impressed by The Wreckers;although the Overture is quite good fun now and again, That said, I have always been intrigued by the excerpts I have heard from The Boatswain's Mate;and from what I have read it sounds a more appealing,and possibly more interesting work. Anyway,now I can find out for myself!! Great stuff!! :)

Truly a wonderfully well-done recording and a very enjoyable work. I really like the historical excerpts as well.
