History is reflected in the words of folk songs sung by some of our folk bands

   Admiral Benbow - - Come all ye seamen bold, - And draw near, and draw near - Come all ye seamen bold, - And draw near - It is of an admiral's fame - O brave Benbow was his name - How he fought all on the main - You shall hear, you shall hear. - 2. Brave Benbow he set sail, - For to fight, for to fight - Brave Benbow he set sail, - For to fight. - Brave Benbow he set sail, - With a fine and pleasant gale - But his captains they turn'd tail - In a fright, in a fright. - - 3. Says Kirby unto Wade, - - "We will run, we will run." - Says Kirby unto Wade, - "We will run. - For I value no disgrace - Or the losing of my place - But the enemy I won't face - Nor his guns, nor his guns."

 
 

What has been said about Folk Bands.      

Quotations about folk bands and their instruments crop up throughout literature. Here are some quotations:-

The fashion for popular airs has spread quickly throughout the musical world. From east to west the tiniest villages have been ransacked, and simple tunes, plucked from the mouths of hoary peasants, find themselves, to their consternation, trimmed with harmonic frills.~ Debussy
