CD ReviewsVery High Quality 'Easy Listening' B. Marold | Bethlehem, PA United States | 01/17/2007 (5 out of 5 stars) "This is the second of Chandos 'The Grainger Edition' recordings I have reviewed and it is much closer to the heart of my tastes than the piano accompanied baritone solos of Volume 2 I previously reviewed. Just as I will value a cookbook if it has just one extraordinary recipe or a computer book if it has just one extraordinarily good programming idea, I wouldlove this album even if everything else but 'Scotch Strathspey and Reel' were junk. But, of course, all the other tracks on the album are not junk, they are very, very good. Just not as enjoyable as this superb rendition of the famous sea chanty, better known by its first line 'What do we do with a drunken sailor...' The 'Joyful Company of Singers' earns their name on this one. Next to Russian liturgical choral singing, sea chanties are my favorite, so I confess to being just a bit less than impartial on this one, but there you are. This one is simply lovely."
