Tradition-laced songs of the sea by Jim McGrath; rich baritone voice and well-schooled guitar accompaniment, along with a few musical guests.
Bio / Background
For more than 40 years, Jim's rich baritone and reliable guitar accompaniment have regaled audiences in saloons, coffeehouses and at outdoor concerts. In the "glory years" of the mid-70s, Jim served aboard the Black Pearl, crossing the Atlantic in Capt. Barclay Warburton's 71-foot hermaphrodite brig and learning a lot about the songs, wines and women of the salt coasts of America and Europe in the process.
This album reflects his love for traditional songs shared by many cultures (Shendandoah is a terrific example), and the songsmithing he has done, building on the traditions of the music.
Jim's own tunes paint vivid pictures of coastal towns and the romance, violence, and tragedy that often occupy them.
Wepecket Island Records is proud to add this title to its list.
The first thing you notice about Jim McGrath is the easy competence with which he delivers his songs.
