Note: Captain Rasmussen explains that shanties are inseparable from the work for which they are sung, and demonstrates the "popular" version of "I'll Go No More a Roving," the tempo of which is much too fast for the work the song would accompany.
About the session: Chanteys and sea songs sung by Norwegian writer and war historian to the Royal Navy, Albert Henry Rasmussen.
