Songs of the sea and shanties


Any recommendations for songs of the sea or shanties sung the traditional way, but recorded not too long ago so that the sound quality is good.

Thanks. BTW my son and wife think I must be nuts to listen to such "strange" or "awful" music. (their words, not mine)

I have a fantastic suggestion:

The Coral. Ther debut album (eponymous) is about 50 percent sea shanties, and is rather enjoyable.

But don't take my word for it...
