2021 Year Of "The Sea Shanty?"

[J. PUPSTER]

OK you Quad lovelies, I see this is the year of "The Sea Shanty" (gotta love it!)

So, are there any Surround Sea Shanties titles (or even great non-surround) you like?

As a matter of fact: yes! (But not in surround, unfortunately.) Rogue's Gallery (2006) and Son of Rogue's Gallery (2013), both produced by the brilliant, late lamented Hal Willner--with help from Johnny Depp & Gore Verbinski.

I'm thinking it would be cool for a Sea Shanty session in surround similar to this "Cowboy Junkies" title with say; a Guitar, an Accordion, a Dulcimer, Harp, Banjo, Bass etc., except not in Ambisonic, i.e. "more discrete."

I have the RCA Living Stereo release of Sea Shanties and the sound is excellent!

Well I did a search on discogs last night with the words Sea Shanty /with an additional filter for "Multichannel" under format and came up with this Rob Reed & Neil Wilkes title (which I'd never heard of) so got an order in for one.

Also searched for Sea Shanties and found one Quad. LP in SQ under format also

And this live BD that looks interesting also...

Say it three times fast: Shaw Sings Sea Shanties by the Sea Shore.

I don't think this one ever got a 3-channel SACD release, did it?

Looks to me like it was originally only Mono

Discogs says there was a mono release, but . . . Living Stereo series?

I'm not a Rob Reed fan, but you've got me curious about that Kompendium project.

I know Analogue Productions has been redoing a lot of the Living Stereo releases. Perhaps 2021 will be the year of the SAC(D) shanty?

AP is woefully behind release of their Living Stereo 2/3 channel SACD series, ubertrout. Titles announced YEARS AGO have yet to be released and are currently listed by Acoustic Sounds as PRE~ORDERS.
