GUEST,Julia L	Modern(ish) Sailor songs by real salts? (41)	RE: Modern(ish) Sailor songs by real salts?	15 Aug 18
As I recall from the beginning of the discussion, this person was looking for songs made by ACTUAL sailors / seamen. Did Ewan MacColl go to sea? Robert Burns certainly didn't (A Man's a Man) It would be interesting to keep the thread relevant to the original query There are LOTS of great "sea" songs, but not all penned from real experience. I grew up sailing living in a fishing community and married a fisherman. My current partner has sailed recreationally and built ships for a living. We both are musicians and write songs, but have not made a living "on the sea"... so do our songs count? Best-Julia Lane
