Well the very first ship to come alongside, - Was called the Green Pea. - We fired to her a warning shot, - And quickly she did flee. - Chorus: - - 3.

Quotations 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
