George Grove, Bill Zorn and Rick Dougherty. Great musicians and folksingers, hand-picked by KT founder Bob Shane to carry on the legacy of. the Kingston Trio. Bill and Rick previously performed in the Limeliters, another great folk trio. KT always had backing musicians, usually a bassist and a drummer ... Great version of a classic folksong!!

The Kingston Trio version is the one that inspired Al Jardine to recommend the song to Brian Wilson. Brian Wilson's superb production helped create, in my opinion, the best verson of the song.

Acoustic and a la folk era--nice! Maybe some younger folks won't appreciate that, but it's so nice to hear some acoustic strumming.

I learned to play guitar from guys that sang and played Devo, stones and Kingston trio. I used to play and sing it for my grandmother she loved the trio. Music is magic

I grew up on the Kingston Trio's music. This was always a favorite.

That banjo really adds something to the song.

My hubby is a huge Kingston Trio fan. I mean besides being 6' 4", he lives, breathes and sings Kingston Trio. He was driving the other day and began to sing "Sloop John B'. I must admit, his singing has improved, For the first time, nobody jumped out of the car.

"Sloop John B"

We come on the sloop John B
My grandfather and me
Around Nassau town we did roam
Drinking all night
Got into a fight
Well I feel so broke up
I want to go home

So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home, yeah yeah
Well I feel so broke up
I wanna go home

The poor cook he caught the fits
And threw away all my grits
And then he took and he ate up all of my corn
Sheriff John Stone
Why don't you leave me alone, yeah yeah
Well I feel so broke up I wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home, let me go home
Why don't you let me go home
(Hoist up the John B's sail)
Hoist up the John B
I feel so broke up I wanna go home
Let me go home

The first mate he got drunk
And broke in the Cap'n's trunk
The constable had to come and take him away
Sheriff John Stone
Why don't you leave me alone, yeah yeah
Well I feel so broke up I wanna go home

So hoist up the John B's sail
See how the mainsail sets
Call for the Captain ashore
Let me go home, let me go home
I wanna go home, let me go home
Why don't you let me go home

This is the only right and believable version of SJB, thank you, you old-good-times folk singers.

My man was a great musician in his own right. He worshipped (loved), The Kingston Trio fashioning much of his stage acts from his history with the Folk Music era of the early 1960s, which includes Civil Rights and the music that sprang up to inspire us all , listening to it more now and enjoying it immensely!

To those that prefer the Beach Boys version, they did a good one. The Beach Boys were first inspired by the Kingston Trio. That's where they come up with Sloop John B and their stripped shirts.
