Post Body
I'm a songwriter who has been researching sea shanties for years now and is currently bringing my shanty inspired musical - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button to London's West End... I have my own opinions on this but would be interested in others thoughts!

Also remember that sea shanties as more modern than we sometimes think. They were a living practice in parts of the Caribbean through the 1970s, even as Europeans and USAmericans were "reviving" them.
