Darren Lynch - Go To Sea No More

Darren plays the sea song Go To Sea No More on his Greek Bouzouki. He writes as comment:

Origins of this song have been traced back to the English Merchant Navy. It's thought to have been brought back from San Francisco and changed in England. Reasons being that Liverpool had no whaling industry and there was a known crimper in San Francisoco called Shanghai Brown. Shanghaiing or crimping is the practice of kidnapping people to serve as sailors by coercive techniques such as trickery, intimidation, or violence.

He also made some tutorials for Irish Bouzouki. You'll find them here:
