[@TomorrowWeLive]

[@flaviusaetius5701]

Deserves more views, better than the other good sea shanty by matt dearing

[@Ysgammerbr]

The big bang theory S2E18 anybody ?

[@HECKproductions]

that moment when every lad is named johnny or billy and every gal is named sally

[@vicstanfieldshire7754]

It feels like this collection is sung by legit sailors. I have to admit, when Assassins Creed 4 came out that’s I when I started listening to Sea Shanties, but it’s been solid listening ever since

[@blaircolquhoun7780]

If anybody has a copy of the 1974 album Songs of the Sea by the United States Merchant Marine Academy KIngs Point Glee Club, could you please post it on here? There's a version of
Sally Brown on it that some people might be familiar with.

[@jamesmullan7013]

real shanties, a working mans voices.

[@zfitness2005]

Gotta say, Assassins creed did it better

[@justdancefan-pv6lb]

They get harder to predict as the album progresses lol

[@madhousetoobah]

raw stuff! wonderful. thx for the upload

[@Xoynyay]

You're welcome!

[@telecis-dg3rd]

Can you give me the lyrics of "The Black Ball Line" please? Thanks

[@Iron_Heinrich]

I served my time in the Black Ball Line,
To me way hay hoo row yah!
In the Black Ball Line I served my time.
Hoorah for the Black Ball Line!
The Black Ball ships they make good time,
With long clean runs and entrance fine.
Oh, that's the line where you can shine.
That's the line where I spent my prime.
Just take the trip to Liverpool,
To Liverpool that packet school.
Them Yankee sailors you'll see there,
With their red-top boots and short-cut hair.
Oh, around Cape Horn in the month of May,
Around Cape Horn is a bloody long way.
Around Cape Horn with the skys'ls set,
around Cape Horn and we're wringing' wet.
Well, if we drown while we are young,
It's better to be drowned than hung.
This proud lively piece is by way of overture to the record. The little Black Ballers, originally running between New York and Liverpool, were the crack transatlantic vessels early in the nineteenth century, and they maintained their high reputation in the middle of the century when they were carrying the mails to Australia, on a contract that meant doing each trip within sixty-five days or accepting a penalty. The men, like the ships, were driven by merciless officers spurred on by a hard company, but the Black Ball packet rats thought themselves the brightest of seamen. American sailors wore red-lined sea-boots. If the tops were turned over, the red showed; hence, red-topped boots. The song was used indiscriminately for halyards, windlass or pumps.

Really fascinating...I love the pure (so to speak)
sound of the voices without any instruments.

[@martysender5539]

and to see them singing, sea shanties, search my video I shot in 2019 ...search "Washington Revels Maritime Voices in 4K" women and men singing in period costumes

[@BeaufordStenberg]

It was in the shanty when I heard the polysemic and proverbial Frigg & Rig, Norse deities of "frigging in the rigging" fame.

[@tantanhide]
