I heard Stan Hugill sing it in Seattle, around 1990 or so I believe. It's on his 1989 collection, "A Salty Fore Topman", which I'm sure is available through Camsco. Here's what Stan has to say about it:

"A forebitter sung to the tune (nearly) of The Spanish Lady. I've known it partly (from my father) for many years but it wasn't until I saw Roy Palmer's book that I got the final theme. Tiger Bay in London is near the Ratcliffe Highway."
