Pirate Music

 As I'm still planning my  Pirate murder mystery I have another question.  Did anyone have any favorite pirate  albums?  I have the POTC  soundtracks,  but I  would love  sea shanties,  jigs,  and  drunken  revelry.

3 Pints Gone has an album "There is a Ship" that is a compilation of a lot of their sea songs.  I kinda like it.

I absolutely love The Dread Crew of Oddwood.  I've got the albums Rocktopus and Heavy Mahogany - it's very much a modern rock twist to the traditional piratey feel, but it's all acoustic instruments and these guys are amazing musicians.  Please note that a fair bit of their stuff is quite NC-17, though!

Oo!  I don't know as much about Capt'n Black's Sea Dogs (anymore), but this may fit the bill well!

Musical Blades is awesome and funny. Some of the songs are a little naughty. Thier newest CD, Up The Ante, is amazing.

 Thanks  for  the selections!  I don't mind a little naughty humor,  and the only person coming Edo might is a light weight,  so a couple drinks of punch and she'll think its hilarious.

You might check on the music of  the Rambling Sailors, The Brigands, the Bawdy Buccaneers, and Pride O' Bedlam.

 The  brigands  are on my list, but I'll have to check the others out too!  Thanks!

Alestorm is worth a listen to any pirate or metal fan. I only have the album Back Through Time, but they've released like seven CDs.

Rambling Sailors - yes!  Susan's voice is as pure sounding as a bell.  Also Bounding Main.  Acapella and magnificent.

[Cap'n Hunnar Graybeard]

Check out the Musical Blades.

The murder mystery party is long past, but I'm loving the new suggestions!

A little shameless self promotion, my band Off Keel is Celtic/Pirate Music. We are beginning work on our Third CD Happy Hour which will have a lot more Celtic tunes, but we will also be writing commercials as we are treating this CD like a radio show...
