about
“Ranzo” is a double-pull halyard chantey, used for raising a yard. I first learned this song at the San Francisco chantey sing; my version is mostly modeled after Stan Hugill’s verses, with particular inspiration from the Danny Spooner and Mystic Seaport Chanteymen recordings.
As with “Blood-Red Roses,” this is one of my favorites to use as an actual halyard chantey at Mystic Seaport. It’s got more of a story than “Blood-Red Roses,” but I’ve known it for so long that the verses come automatically.
