History is reflected in the words of traditional folk songs

   A Life on the Ocean Wave - - A life on the ocean wave, - A-home on the rolling deep! - Where the scater'd waters rave, - And the winds their revels keep - Like an eagle caged I pine - On this dull, unchanging shore. - Oh give me the flashing brine, - The spray and the tempest's roar. - Refrain: - A life on the ocean wave, - A-home on the rolling deep! - Where the scater'd waters rave - And the winds their revels keep, - |: The winds,..... the winds... - The winds their revels...keep. :| 2. Once more on the deck I stand, - Of my own swift, gliding craft. - Set sail, farewell to land, - The gale follows fair abaft. - We shoot thro' the sparkling foam, - Like an ocean bird set free. - Like the ocean bird, our home, - We'll find far out on the sea.

 
 

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
