[PAR] [TLE] The Vulgar Boatmen [SEP] The Vulgar Boatmen are an American rock band formed in Gainesville, Florida in the early 1980s by a group of students at the University of Florida, including John Eder and Walter Salas-Humara.  In its original configuration the group issued several cassette-only releases, including "Women and Boatmen First" (1982) and "All Bands on Deck" (1984).  As first Eder and then Salas-Humara departed, the group coalesced around Robert Ray, a film studies professor at the university, who became one of the group's two principal songwriters and vocalists, the other being Indiana musician Dale Lawrence, a former student of Ray's who was a veteran of the early punk band the Gizmos.  The band was named as a play on the term The Volga Boatmen. [PAR] [TLE] The Song of the Volga Boatmen [SEP] The "Song of the Volga Boatmen" (known in Russian as Эй, ухнем!  [Ey, ukhnem! , "yo, heave-ho!"] , after the refrain) is a well-known traditional Russian song collected by Mily Balakirev, and published in his book of folk songs in 1866.  It was sung by burlaks, or barge-haulers, on the Volga River.  Balakirev published it with only one verse (the first).  The other two verses were added at a later date.  Ilya Repin's famous painting, "Barge Haulers on the Volga", depicts such burlaks in Tsarist Russia toiling along the Volga.
