 FULL RIGGED SHIP [2], DA. Shetland, Listening Piece (triple meter). A Dorian. Standard tuning. AABB'CC' (Cooke, Martin & Hughes). Popularized by Tom Anderson, who explains the little hesitations and sudden melodic turns as the motion when a fine sailing ship mounts the ocean swell, pauses and dips its bow again. It is often followed without a break by the reel "New Rigged Ship (2) (Da)" (Cooke).  Source for notated version: Peter Fraser (Walls, Shetland) [Cooke].
