Subject: RE: Tune Req: Looking for a good sea chanty
I would recommend "Blood Red Roses" but then I would. May I caution that unless they are forebitters they were not intended as pretty songs. Dare I suggest if you have a group you can demonstrate one chanty as a visual thingy, they rarely had many men - hence the need for chantying? It will change the way you sing and bring variety. Good Luck
