desperanceThat was ... remarkable. Three hours of unbroken music: some of it clearly shanties, some of it unclearly shanties, some clearly not but all seaward-looking and much piratical.
I can haz Tim Robbins for my backing singer, plz?
I didn't love it all; I don't get the more weirdly eccentric noisemakers, though they clearly love each other. (Like I stopped listening to Tom Waits, whom I adored, when he seemed to do nothing but rant through megaphones: not my thing.) Also, I thought Suzanne Vega's song was dull, and didn't stretch her. But! There was plenty to send an eerie chill down my spine, which is the most I ever ask of music. And God, I do love being sung to. 'Specially with drums. I shoulda bin a percussionist, perhaps.
I want the CD now.
