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

   The Protecting Brewer - - A Brewer may be a Burgess grave, - And carry the matter so fine and so brave, - That he the better may play the Knave, - Which no body can deny. - A Brewer may be a Parliament-man, - For there the Knavery first began, - And brew most cunning plots he can, - Which no body can deny. - 2. A brewer may put on a Nabal face, - And march to the Wars with such a grace, - That he may get a Captains place, - Which no body can deny. - A Brewer may speak so Wonderous well, - That he may raise strange things to tell, - And so to be made a Collonel, - Which no body can deny. - - 3. A Brewer may make his foes to flee, - And raise his Fortunes, so that he, - Lieutenant-General may be, - Which no body can deny. - A Brewer he may be all in all, - And raise his Powers both great and small, - That he may be a Lord General, - Which no body can deny.

 
 

Folk Bands - Quotations.      

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
