I should add that JoAnn Mar, from San Francisco's NPR affiliate KALW, conducted the interview and recorded at this month's chantey sing for this story. She freelances for VOA, and as Guest pointed out, did a great job. Thanks Charlie and ChanteyLass.

The San Francisco chantey sing made the San Francisco Chronicle this week:I haven't been to the chantey sing for years, since I moved an additional hour away from San Francisco. I always had a wonderful time. The video attached to the article shows a lot of familiar faces. Kudos to chanteyranger for keeping it going strong all these years.

It's great to see the 10 year old 3rd-generation chanty singer leading a song.

We have an 8-year old 2nd-generation singer here leading shanties in our children's music workshops

We also have a large group of shanty singers under 30 years carrying on the tradition each week, with a sprinkling of us older singers along for the ride. In addition we have a regular monthly shanty session on the 1874 tall ship James Craig, so we're well served for shanties
