Re: Barry's mention of Hugill's 'Shanties from the Seven Seas'. I ran across the paperback reprint in a Border's bookstore just yesterday or the day before. Bill D. mentioned the Boarding Party and Barry mentioned "Shendoah". The Boarding Party's version of this is called "Solid Fas'" on Folk-Legacy FSI-97. This is by far the best version of the song I've ever seen or heard, but is a relatively recent version from the West Indies.
