32. "The joy is having the songs get out there" with Bob Walser

Saison 2 · Épisode 1

mercredi 5 novembre 2025 • Durée 01:02:53

SEASON 2 PREMIERE

We're finally back after a long haitus! In this kickoff to Season 2, we welcome folklorist and musician Bob Walser to the show to discuss his journey into the world of shanties and, particularly, his work uncovering new shanties in the recordings and documents of 1930s collector James Madison Carpenter. We also discuss the historical significance of dreg songs, the influence of Afro-Caribbean music on shanties, and the legacy of Carpenter and other collectors in documenting folk music. The conversation also touches on the accessibility of historical music collections and personal anecdotes that highlight the joy of sharing and singing traditional songs.

Jon “JD” Darley is a member of the chart-topping shanty group The Longest Johns, based out of Bristol, UK.
