The Shanty on iPlayer
« on: January 23, 2013, 11:14:21 AM »

I'm sure this Radio 2 programme about the Shanty will be of interest to many here. Presented by Richard Hawley, previously guitarist with Pulp and more recently a solo artist of much acclaim.

Melodeons and sailors in "original times " didn't exist. Except on logos and trademarks from Hohner.

Has anyone heard of the song. “ Broken Alarm-clock Blues” ? It starts   “I woke up this Afternoon”
