Folk songs tell a story

   Died For Love - - A bold young farmer courted me - He gained my heart and my liberty - He gained my heart with a free good will - And I must confess that I love him still. - 2. I wish, I wish, but it's all in vain - I wish I was a maid again - But a maid again, that never can be - Since that young farmer lay still with me. - - 3. I wish my baby little was born - And smiling on his daddy's knee - And I poor girl was in my grave - With the long green grass a-growing all over me

 
 

Scottish Folk Bands - Quotations.      

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
