Down to the Sea in Ships was released in 1956 as a 33Шаблон:Fraction RPM album under the Decca record label. Burl Ives and the Ralph Hunter Singers perform classic sea shanties.

Reception

Шаблон:Album ratings Allmusic critic Bruce Eder wrote: "Some of it may sound hokey in the 21st century, but in 1956 this was as close to authenticity as most listeners ever got, and it is still compelling listening, if one suspends his disbelief (which Ives makes it easy to do). What's more, the range of material speaks volumes about the sincerity of the effort involved, which may overcome some of the sense of artifice that one finds in records of this sort a half-century or more on."
