Sea Shantys The Longest Johns

[thataway]

Many of use love a good sea shanty. Power and Motor Boat has daily subjects. Todays was on: An English group named The Longest Johns. During this interview there is history of the group, and several sea shanties.

If you just want to skip to their music, then Here is a 57 minute video at 2021 Shrewsbery Folk Festival. There is some original music, which does not fit right into the Sea Shanty category...There are also a number of single U Tube video songs, if you continue the thread.

That was interesting. Good music, kind of "Ocean Going Folk", both the genre and the band. Much like peppy sea ballads. The Beatles of the Sea.

Thanks for sharing that.
