3. Therefore, if you like the sound of this album I also recommend the following albums, composed by various performers including some on this album: Blow the Man Down; Round Cape Horn; Shanties & Songs of the Sea. These albums have a great mix of emotion in them, from rip-roarin' drinking songs to inspirational working songs to melancholy tunes /5(65).

Each [G]cry and call, each [C]rise and [G]fall, of the crows a[D]cross the [C]corn Were seagulls [G]swooping a[D]cross the [G]bow, of a [C]Ship I dreamed I’d [Em]sail a[D]round Cape [G]Horn. My [G]deck was the dusty [C]farm [G]yard, my [Em]mast was the [D]telegraph [C]pole.

5. There's really nothing like songs of the sea, properly performed by soloists or ensembles -- it's no matter of beauty or grandeur, more one of rough-hewn presence, where the relationship to accurate musicality is equivalent to a sailor standing on deck: balance is never lost, but position shifts according to the pitch and yaw of ship according to the ocean.6/

6. Various Artists - Chants De Marins: Sea Shanties - Leave Her Johnny Review: This album includes traditional shanties from the early days of navigation around the New Zealand coasts. Shanties were divided into halyard shanties (hauling songs), windlass or capstan songs used for heaving the anchor, and pump songs, used for pumping the ship out.

8. Even today, 'round-the-world sailing races incorporate the use of these landmarks, and ironically, despite the installation of the canals, the clipper route is still the fastest way around the world. A clipper ship is a particular type of commercial ocean-going vessel that is very has multiple masts (means it has lots of sails) and square rigging.
