 “[[South Australia]]” is track 15 on ''[[Shower Chanteys]]'', recorded 15 and 28 August 2018 at [[Mill Pond Music Studio]].<ref>“South Australia,” recording by Chris Maden. [https://musicbrainz.org/recording/1a3679b2-0e06-4ccc-8195-ce9c191a416f MusicBrainz].</ref>
-This may be the most Folk Revival-ist and least traditional song on the album (except maybe the weird version of “[[Highland Laddie]],” but that’s from a primary source).  Read the Mudcat thread linked above, or at least the posts from “Gibb Sahib” ([https://www.pomona.edu/directory/people/gibb-schreffler Dr. Gibb Schreffler of Pomona State College]).  I learned this version at the [https://www.nps.gov/safr/learn/historyculture/chantey-sing.htm San Francisco chantey sing], and understood it to be a pumping chantey (the only kind with “heave away, haul away”), but there’s a very good case to be made that the version everyone sings now has drifted significantly from its roots as a work-song.  The lyrics I do are mostly from Hugill,<ref>Stan Hugill.  ''Shanties from the Seven Seas'', pp. 150–151.  New U.S. Edition.  Mystic, Conn.: Mystic Seaport, 1994.</ref> though see Gibb’s comments about the authenticity of Hugill’s words and assertions.  Colcord’s version is a little older,<ref>Joanna C.
