Album Notes

Arrr, mateys! The brave lads of the Toucan Pirates return from their third voyage to Ireland, Scotland, England & the Shetland Isles with another boatload of musical gems.

Each salty tune has been recovered from the holds of many a sunken treasure galleon, or discovered on faraway West Indian islands using dusty old treasure maps.

This rollicking album contains authentically piratical tunes played on Concertina, Tin Whistle, Irish Bouzouki, Tenor Banjo and Button Accordion. The addition of some West Indian steel drums give the album that original "Pirates of the Caribbean" flavor.

The songs are then boldly fired into a soundscape of pirate adventure on the high seas, so come along on an exciting musical adventure with the Toucan Pirates!

Great CD Mateys !

I've bought this CD a couple of months ago and I'm still listening to it. The songs are fun and catchy. Some nice melodic mellow tunes to chill out to. Heck this CD brings me to tropical place in another time - think: rum, bucaneers and seafaring adventures. This CD inspired me to buy another instrument to use on my latest CD (Music Rain). I'm still working on getting a Bouzouki, but I did get a baritone Uke that gives some pirate tone as well as tropical. Listen to my song: Adventure, Gold & Rum. 
Anyway, keep up the good music! Can't wait to buy another Tucan Pirates CD.
peace & Music
