Now then m'dears the old Fairport 78's is wearin out an the lads bein a bit lucky like on the last trip is investigatin in a 3PM player.

They've heard you can add tracks off any album an so want to create a Fairport at Sea selection to listen while takin tea and suchlike in the afternoon at 3pm.

So far they've demanded Sir Patrick Spens and Lorra Rooks can you suggest some more for 'em they're gettin meaner by the hour... I fear for me safety unless they get their demands... help..

the ones up above, especially the spanish main
General Taylor
The banks of the sweet primroses
Bonny bunch of roses

all kind of mention seafaring ways.

Steeleye span have a few seafaring songs. Plus Whalers dues by tull, Calypso by Denver, The wreck by Gentle Giant.
Also The Ian Cambell folk group has Swarb singing some fantastic seafaring songs. Also A.L.Lloyd has a bunch of good ones.

If connections are permitted - Sandy's "The North Star Grassman And The Ravens" would seem a sea-going essential.
