Dead Horse-

In her discussion of shanties/chanties C. Fox Smith recalls a painful evening she spent at a music hall where the three large mariners attired in jerseys, sea boots, cheesecutter and stocking caps shouted "Let's have a tchahntey!"

She also mentioned that old shellbacks would invariably say "Shannadore" rather than "Shenandoah" but not to worry!

Cheerily,
