The Adventures Of Captain Feathersword, The Friendly Pirate (alternatively known as Stories and Songs) is the third Wiggles album. It was released in 1993 under the Stories and Songs series. In this album The Wiggles go on an adventure with Captain Feathersword and his friendly pirate friends, Raj, Penelope and Imran.

Plot

The Wiggles get to meet Captain Feathersword and his pirate mates Imran, Raj and Penelope. They all go on an adventure to find treasure. First, they have to go through a huge storm when they are travelling across the ocean. After the storm, they arrived safe on the island. Then they began to look around the island for the treasure that Captain Feathersword buried years ago. After they find the treasure, they all realise that the treasure is baked beans. Captain Feathersword remembered that he buried baked beans for them to eat. When they leave the island, they remember it was also Captain Feathersword's birthday, and the pirate mates are playing a trick on the Captain. A little while later, they surprise the Captain when he enters the room and he says that it was the best birthday that he ever had. Then the pirate mates sing a birthday song to him.
