1 - This session features a male chorus singing sailing, rowing, and boat-pulling songs. It includes a number of interviews and some recordings were actually made in a rowboat. Some of the recordings can be found on Caribbean Voyage: Nevis and St. Kitts (Rounder 1732). [Source: Recordings and Field Log] |

:: Recording Notes :: |
0 - Call-and-response between lead singer(s) and chorus. Chorus sings in unison and parallel harmony. What sounds like rowing can be heard in the background (perhaps approximating an actual working environment). [Source: Recording] |
