I loved it! (As expected) It's so good! Rio Grande has been stuck in my head a lot since last stream, and I expect it to stay there for quite some time now. The harmonies on this are amazing, they go straight into my heart and make it all warm and happy. Songs I want.. John Paul Jones, Fire marengo, Old bloke, Antiguan graveyard, Paddy West, Polly on the shore, One more pull.. Basically all the lovely songs you sing on the streams. Whatever you sing, it tends to sound amazing.

Always enjoy hearing you gents sing. I came across another channel, covering shanties of yours, but he does all the harmonization himself and... it just sounds like 3 of him singing the same lines. Not everybody is as vocally talented as Michael Jackson was and shanties definitely require, in my opinion, harmonization with folks that don't app sound exactly the same!

*LYRICS - Rio Grande - The Longest Johns* Our ship went a-sailin' on over the bar, (Away for Rio!) And we pointed our bow to the old southern star, And we're bound for the Rio Grande! And away, boys, away! Away for Rio, So fare thee well, all you pretty young girls, And we're bound for the Rio Grande. Oh say was you ever down Rio Grande? (Away for Rio!) It's there that the water runs down golden sand, And we're bound for the Rio Grande! And away, boys, away! Away for Rio, So fare thee well, all you pretty young girls, And we're bound for the Rio Grande. There was some of us sick, and some of us sore, (Away for Rio!) We scoffed all our lime juice and can't get no more, And we're bound for the Rio Grande! And away, boys, away! Away for Rio, So fare thee well, all you pretty young girls, And we're bound for the Rio Grande. So pack up your donkeys an' get underway, (Away for Rio!) Them girls we are leavin' will get our half-pay, And we're bound for the Rio Grande! And away, boys, away! Away for Rio, So fare thee well, all you pretty young girls, And we're bound for the Rio Grande. Well it's goodbye to Molly, and goodbye to Sue. (Away for Rio!) You folks on the quayside, it's goodbye to you, And we're bound for the Rio Grande! And away, boys, away! Away for Rio, So fare thee well, all you pretty young girls, And we're bound for the Rio Grande. Sing only one pull whilst heaving, my sons, (Away for Rio!) Sing only one chorus, it's blowing big guns, And we're bound for the Rio Grande! And away, boys, away! Away for Rio, So fare thee well, all you pretty young girls, And we're bound for the Rio Grande. So fare thee well, all you pretty young girls, And we're bound for the Rio Grande… And we're bound for the Rio Grande!
