Pyrate CD Review
author: from The Pyrates Way Magazine, Autumn '07
"Two folks walked up to me dressed in their pyratey best at the end of a long, hot day in August at The Maryland Renaissance Faire (I never miss a day if I can). They were recent subscribersand wanted to know if I'd be interested in reviewing their CD. I'm handed home-made CDs all the time but this one seemed to be professionally put together and I said "aye, mate...I'll take a listen." They thanked me and made their way out of the main gate with me. When I popped the CD into the Pyrate's Way Pilot's system for the long ride back to my home in Delaware I was very pleasantly surprised by what came through the speakers. A great quality sound engineering production, the pyratey music on the CD took me on a happy trip through some great chanties. There were some standards like Cuckoo's Nest, Charlie Mopps and Roll Your Leg Over, but there were chanties I'd not experienced that I thoroughly enjoyed. Of the CD, five new songs were so well presented that they now have a permanent in my iPod: Sea Monkey, Katie's Boat, The Battered Mug, My Magical Place and Water is Wide. Want something new yet traditional that will keep your flag flying? Get this CD!

Good fun and fantastic singing
author: matt
I've seen these guys at Renaissance Faires and they're a load of fun. They have fantastic singing and can really project, and they do a lot of "racy" and "dirty" songs - sometimes they add their own verses which are hilarious. But they also do some beautiful and wistful folk material, and do a fantastic job of it. Their CD is like a snapshot of their live show, with jokes and comments in between lines at times. I'd recommend this to anyone who enjoys the rennaisance faire kind of fun mix of traditional and contemporary with a sense of humor.
