Surfacing by Tom Lewis
This was my very first recording (1987) and comprises twelve of my own compositions and one from (the late) Cyril Tawney. That this happened at all, is due to the great support from a stalwart bunch of friends around the Puget Sound area. Sincere thanks guys!

I am rubbish at ‘blowing my own trumpet’ (he said, modestly). However; one publication said:
‘After 24 years at sea; Tom's repertoire—from traditional shanties to songs fashioned out of his own seafaring background—recruits his audience for a voyage by turns reflective, dramatic and humorous; with songs that have become folk standards; known and sung wherever great choruses ring out.’
