I was listening to music on my Pandora.com account this evening, just a little bit ago, when John Denver singing Calypso came on. Wow, did that bring back memories - not only of John Denver and his truly magnificent voice but also of the ship Calypso, her voyages led by undersea adventurer Jacques Cousteau, the crew of the ship and the wondrous things they showed & taught us about the sea and the life both on & within her.
Here are two versions of the song from YouTube - one with video and one with still shots. I liked them both but must say while the video was very nice to watch, it did not have some of the more memorable photographic images that were seen in the one with the still photographs. Don't miss either though - listen to and watch both of them. If you are close to my age - you probably will be filled with some fine memories of Jacques Cousteau, Calypso, her crew and the voyages and adventures they shared with us on television in the show The Undersea World Of Jacques Cousteau. Those memories are something that later generations probably have never even imagined. There may be much better underwater photography & videography since but the voyages & adventures of Calypso as recorded by Cousteau & his crew were something unique and were absolutely firsts in their field when we got to see them back then; they truly were pioneers of exploring the briny deep. And bear in mind you get to watch these two YouTube nuggets while listening to the truly amazing voice of John Denver singing the praises of Calypso & her crew.
Hope you enjoyed them, I certainly did so!
All the best,
