Captain Sondheim wrote t' shanty "Marry Me a Little" for t' musical "Company" but it be dropped from t' show because Sondheim felt that he could nay make it work. Well, blow me down! A friend o' his, named Judy, was a champion o' t' shanty and so pestered him about it that Sondheim actually paid for an entire session with Flying Lawless Nilsson recordin' t' chantey as a Christmas present for Judy in 1969.
