Carl Peterson: I Love Scottish & Irish Sea Songs

	I Love Scottish & Irish Sea Songs
	Wooden ships and iron men, human muscle and white canvas against the wind and the sea. Sailor men and whalers, pirates and merchant seamen all had something in common. They were of a wild and spirited character, salty as the sea and rough as the waves in a storm, with a woman in every port. Their songs and music are their history. The chanteys and ballads tell of the good times and the bad; the savage times and the gentle times; the tragedy and the humor; their times at sea and their times ashore. They sang to ease their work and to tell their stories. So grab a noggin of rum and imagine yourself on the high seas as you listen to this collection of Songs of the Sea from Britain, Ireland, Canada and The United States. Drink a toast to Captain Kidd, John Paul Jones, Christopher Columbus and to all the men of the sea. What Shall We Do With the Drunken Sailor I'se the B'y Shenandoah The E-R-I-E Canal New York Gals Farewell Tae Tarwathie Maggie May Nova Scotia Farewell Ballad of Captain Kidd Rolling Home (to Dear Old Scotland) Molly Malone Sally Racket
