Something for the historians...

I just discovered a band by the name of Rustmonster. Their new album, "Last Voyage of the Black Betty" is entirely pirate themed (and entirely odd.) One of their songs, for example, is a gem that features a pirate reading verbatim from the Young Officer's Sheet Anchor, set to light jazz music.

I'll be playing it tonight on Bilgemunky Radio, if anyone wants to check it out!

I just want to say that it is a great and wonderful thing that you're doing, Bilgemunky. Every Monday night you're broadcasting pirate and maritime tunes - the only one in the world doing it, in fact! And your shows are getting better and better every week as you learn your craft. Great stuff - and great research! I'm hearing things I've never know existed before! More background notes on songs and groups, though, please?

Thanks for all of your hard work! I hope listeners are dropping a ducet or two in your PayPal account!
