For this week's jukebox music theme, History, here is "Solomon Browne", written and sung by Seth Lakeman, a song about the 1981 Penlee Lifeboat disaster. The RNLI lifeboat Solomon Browne went to rescue five sailors aboard the Union Star after her engines failed off the coast of Cornwall. Sixteen people died, including 8 RNLI volunteers. "At fair Mount's Bay, on that Christmas week, Was such a raging storm, no man could speak, That lifeboat thundered through an angry sea, Was called Solomon Browne and her company, With courage, it was called, On our heroes brave and bold, With courage, it was cold, On board that night." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YdGWJ7ATRJA #JukeboxFridayNight #History
