Folk songs tell a story

The Unfortunate Miss Bailey - - A captain bold from Halifax - Once left his captain quarters, - Seduced a maid who hanged herself - One morning in her garters. - His wicked conscience smitted him, - He lost his stomach daily - He took to drinking turpentine - And thought upon Miss Bailey. - |: Oh! Miss Bailey, unfortunate Miss Bailey! :| - 2. One night while sleeping on his ship, - The captain heard a banging, - He left his bed and went on deck, - And saw Miss Bailey hanging. - His timepiece stopped at Midnight - And his candle burned quite palely. - And from the mast a ghost stepped down, - Behold it was Miss Bailey. - |: Oh! Miss Bailey, unfortunate Miss Bailey! :| - 3. Away, Miss Bailey, he implored, - You don't affright me, really, - Dear Captain Smith, the ghost replied, - You've used me ungenteely. - The coroner was hard on me, - Because I acted fraily, - The Parson would not bury me, - Though I'm a dead Miss Bailey - |: Oh! Miss Bailey, unfortunate Miss Bailey! :|

What has been said about Scottish Folk Bands.

Much has been written about folk music and scottish folk bands. Here are some quotations:-

Never having thought of writing for the guitar, I asked Julian [Bream] for a chart which would explain what the guitar could do. I managed to write some rather pretty pieces for him, except that the first six notes of the first piece all need to be played on open strings. So when he begins to play, the audience will probably think he’s tuning the bloody thing up. ~ Walton
