I've hunted on the Net and found pictures of 17 (!) other titles put out by the same people but couldn't find anywhere where one could buy them. Can 'Catters help me? Thanks! Jon Bartlett |

They have French and French Canadian material not listed on Amazon.com. The hard-bound "Chants de Marins a la decouverte d'une tradition vivante," 2003, includes a 73 minute cd with 25 tracks from earlier albums; there are three tracks of Hugill and three of John Wright; the rest are in French. It cost $46 Canadian. The complete catalogue of books and cds is available from LeChasse-Maree/ArMen 29177 DOUARNENEZ CEDEX Tel. 98 92 09 19 Many Breton cds, other than chanteys, are available. (Another thread has some of the same info, but I can't find it) |

Some societies and merchants refuse to answer requests in English from Canada, those from the U. S. may receive better treatment. |
