Do Rowing songs qualify as shanties? The Hebridean Scots were/are Island people and getting from here to there meant rowing a lot.There are a number of tunes with evocative names and rhythmic cadence which had lyrics in Gaelic originally. Seems like some of our Gaelic experts could provide lyrics..?
