Same here. My mom grew up with Nick, who lived just around the corner from her house in Coronado CA. When they started producing records, we got all of the latest albums.
Ear worm alert!

My tastes vary with the location & conditions. Some of my choices come from unlikely sources.
In a heavy blow in the North Atlantic, you might find me listening to something like this -
By the way, in his later years, his guitar work was still outstanding -
In lazy conditions, in southern latitudes, like below N26, you might find something more like this coming from my boat -
Surprisingly, her dad was one of the Sex Pistols
I'm also a pretty big fan of the Junior man from Texas -
The least likely source of a Ventures/Hollies cover I would ever expect.
Speaking of unlikely, did you ever think you would hear Jeff Beck doing Rockabilly -
Dickey Betts is another musician that's just plain hard to beat -

Just saw this boat over the weekend. It is obvious what is music to his ears. BTW, this is drug addict music. Riding That Train, High on Cocaine, Casey Jones better Watch Your Speed
I have to admit that I didn't go through all the suggestion I apologize if this has been posted already......some great sailing footage to go along with this classic
Having had the worst season so far with seagulls pooping all over my boat, this has become my favorite shipboard album
We have 2 for when we fell sporty, also played them at the start of our River Race last year and since it isn't a serious competition was enjoyed by those that could hear. We opened with Bestie Boys Sabotage followed by AC/DC Thunderstruck, my daughter loves it, we at least project attitude to compensate for our lack of skill...
Great thread to resurrect as we head into winter. If I do listen to anything, it's got to fit the weather and the work. Old shanties are great 'cause you don't have to have the earbuds in or the stereo loud - it's all in your head.
Here's one to get the blood boiling if you're feeling lazy and need to get stuff done:

Our family song is an old sea shanty called 'The Old Dun Cow' my daughter's job was to shout "MCINTYRE!" at the appropriate time in the song.
Really, it's more an Irish drinking song than a sea shanty, but I learned it from a collection of 'Songs of the Sea'.
