Update from Frankie Gentile-
Just an Update -
Earl will be in town during Fiesta and will be playing a show Thursday Night of Fiesta down at Captian Carlos along with EXIT 11 with a portion of the proceeds going to the JJ Nicastro Fund. It will be a great night of Music, and a chance to hear this great song LIVE!
Earl and Arch
Here is a song by two friends of mine Earl and Arch. They both are Gloucester natives but now live in The St. Pete Beach area of Florida. Earl wrote this song a while back. I put some of my own video and stills together and grabbed some of the net. This should be the official GMG song.

Mike-
The whole thing gave me the shivers. Whoa!
No words can describe that feeling. Thanks for sharing your art. And I agree with Joey.

This is a very good video and song. I remember when I was city hall custodian I was challenged by Gap Lafatta to write a poem for the dedication of the name from the City Hall Roll of lost Fishermen to the new site. While I did write it , time did not permit it to be read. My granddaughter Ashley ran around the crowd giving copies of it away. She also banged on the Bishops Lime and demanded he take one,which he did. My cousin Carlo “Bronco” Sinagra was the skipper of the Aligator. This great song will live on , and , thank you Mike

Great Song! Great Video! Cousin Earl is an amazing singer/songwriter. Great job Mike putting the video together! And I can’t forget Archie’s great guitar work on the song too!!! Keep an eye out for Earl and Arch this summer around Fiesta Time. Not sure if Arch can make it, but I am on the phone with Earl as we speak, and he will be attempting to fly in for Fiesta and play a few gigs. I do know if he comes to town, he will be playing with Exit 11 and myself at Captain Carlos for the JJ Foundation on Thursday Night. Its a great time…should be fun!
Later

What a beautiful song. Love it and the pics.Being a fishermans daughter this spoke directly to me, and my children.
The heart of Gloucester, and everyone who is connected are in the verses and photos….
Everyone is Gloucester should see this.

Mike that was absolutely wonderful! I loved how you meshed the video with still frames, and set it to the song so wonderfully. I am also very impressed with the song! It IS Gloucester and should be our official song! Your friend really got the essence of our daily lives here in Glosta.

I can’t tell you how many times I have watched this video. A relative sent it to me several days ago. I grew up in Gloucester. I moved to Portland Oregon in 1976 but still call Gloucester home. I visit a couple times a year to see family & friends and always feel connected when I am there. This is a great song & video. My grandfather Amero had a fishing fleet and one of my uncles was lost at sea. This is a wonderful tribute to Gloucester.

Mike,
This video brought tears to my eyes. It was incredible. I listen to it everytime I check into GMG. I think Joey should display it on the brick wall across from passports this summer at the downtown block party. I too hope that Earl and Archie will come for St. Peters Fiesta and perform it live,
Joey’s, mom

No, there has been a recent upheaval in the Greasy Pole/Seine Boat announcing world. I’m not even sure who “The Official Voice” of the Greasy Pole is right now, but I’ll find out and get back to you.

BRAVO Bravo Bravo — As someone still relatively new to Gloucester (moved here Jan. 08) — I, too, remember visiting here and seeing the Man At The Wheel as a kid — well, in college, anyway. All of this city’s great history, heritage and people mean so, so much more to me now. I love every bit of it — and this song really helps drive all of those feelings home. Looking forward to seeing them and hearing this great song live!!! It should be a real part of Fiesta!

GREAT song and video!! I lived in Gloucester from January 1983-September 1984. My husband was in the USCG and he was the lighthouse keeper at Eastern Point. It was an exciting (the storms) and beautiful spot. I loved to walk out to the end of the breakwater and look out over the harbor and the Atlantic. At dawn, we watched from our window the stream of boats leaving the harbor and in the evening, they’d come back, each followed by a flock of seagulls. Oh, how I miss that place! I try to visit as often as possible.

I have heard this song so many times, and don’t get sick of it.
I have lived in Vancouver, Washington for 20 years. I have never gone a day without being homesick.
This song epitomizes what I feel.
Thank you so much for it’s publication here.
