Yea, I too would love to hear how the festival went.
I just heard a mention of it on RTE (Ireland), my attention was captured by the sound of a shanty being sung (led out) by a pretty old sounding voice. Did Stan Hugill make many records can they be purchased ?
I bought his book some years ago from CSH, London but had never heard him sing.
BTW Someone mentioned his last ship the "Pamir". Is this the vessel that was captained by Alan Villiers, on the last grain race??
