The maritime museum where I work in San Francisco has a giftstore that sells sea music recordings, and is having trouble finding a distributor of several CDs they want to carry They are looking for wholesale distributors in the U.S. who carry these CDs - Ewan MacColl and A.L. Lloyd: Blow Boys Blow (Tradition label), and Stan Hugill et Stormalong John: Chants Des Marins Anglais (vol. 3 of a French series of shanty recordings). I was told the store buyer tried to contact Tradition directly for the MacColl and Lloyd CD, to no avail. Can anyone recommend wholesale distributors in the USA? Any help much appreciated! ( Dick, does CAMSCO distribute wholesale?)

Sorry, CAMSCO doen't distribute. Sidestreet Distributing handles Tradition. WoodenShip Music can help you with the Hugill recording.

Thanks, ick. I passed on your info to the store's buyer.

Still looking for a distributor for the French CD (Wooden ships has a few other Hugill's), so if anyone has leads, I'm all ears. Thanks.
