Sung by MEMBERS OF THE SEVEN SEAS CLUB
Relayed from Anderton's Hotel.
SEA shanties are a popular form of music nowadays, and many of us have heard then i sung by professional singers and by zealous amateurs, but tonight's show will be a very different affair. Sea shanties sting by seafaring men in a really appropriate setting-and Anderton's Hotel is a very appropriate setting, after a dinner of the Seven Seas Club, all of whose members are men of the sea, and many of them veterans of sail-have a full-throated quality that you can never hear elsewhere, and a heartiness that more than atones for any deficiency in phrasing or lack of subtlety in tone.
