GUEST,sciencegeek Shanties & sea songs with Gareth Malone BBC4 (22) RE: Shanties & sea songs with Gareth Malone BBC4 01 Oct 20


found this BBC program on youtube

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lqC2-wY_Axw

great footage of the Peking and good use of guests who are part of the tradition and keeping it alive

interesting note, they use a reference R R Terry's first shanty book and Richard Runciman Terry hosted a number of early broadcasts on the BBC of sea shanties in the 19202... but they don't seem to have preserved any of those recordings, Terry, being a Geordie, I've often wondered what he sounded like
