shanty

With this compilation I tried to capture the essence of vocal-only shanties, but with instrumental accompaniment. It is more on the ambient side of things; with a gradual buildup of energy, using songs with minimal instruments. I have added lyrics if you would like to sing along, which you can view by activating ’Subtitles/CC’. Many thanks to all who have been listening to my compilations so far, and to all the groups featured for making these wonderful songs. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - _= Tracklist (with timestamps) =_ The Longest Johns - Ashes (0:00) The Longest Johns - Off To Sea (3:19) The Jolly Rogers - Royal Oak (7:47) The Jolly Rogers - Away Rio (11:49) The Jolly Rogers - Tow Rope Girls (16:03) The Jolly Rogers - One More Day (19:32) The Jolly Rogers - Galway Girls (21:53) The Fisherman’s Friends - Paddy Lay Back (24:54) The Fisherman’s Friends - Oh You New York Girls (27:18) The Fisherman’s Friends - Rattlin’ Winches (30:16) T
