Songs of Ships & Sailors
Songs of Ships & Sailors
Songs of Ships and Sailors is designed as a book for singers. It contains over 160 songs gleaned from audio field recordings and unpublished manuscripts made by folk song collectors c. 1890-1943. Each song has been transcribed and lyrics amended where necessary to complete the story. In addition to the words and music there are contextual notes for each song and extensive appendices for those who are interested in the finer details.
These mp3 files are melody only and are provided for the convenience of those who have the book but do not read music.
