Can't find anything on Adam Raeburn and Friends. Do they go by a band name?
@PopularesVox3 ай бұрын
I met Adam in the 90's when he was working as a stone mason and he told me about his folk music. I bought his CD but never actually saw him play live in the venues he played locally. I doubt though his music was known outside the Borders. Success wasn't something I think he aspired to, but he really didn't receive the recognition he deserved and he seems to have become less and less seen in folk circles as the years went on. Regrettably I read some time ago that Adam passed away. A sad loss because he was part of a Border Ballad tradition that is almost gone. I'll try and upload the full CD in the next few weeks and there was another which he did.

This is a folk song not popular music, intended to be sung around the firesides in taverns not radio studies. The guy has a good voice and performed extensively at venues within the Scottish Borders. He is no longer with us, so your question is moot, misplaced and unnecessarily opinionated.

@@CarminaBarritus Folk song is popular music; the clue is in the "Folk" part of the name. If you had lived through the folk revival of the 50s and 60s, when virtually every town in the UK had one or more folk clubs, you would agree. Since I have been playing and listening to all sorts of folk music for over 60 years, I am entitled to have an opinion, and how am I supposed to know he is no longer with us? And I don't like this tune, or his rendition of it. If you post it on line for people to hear it, you can expect comments. You could always disable them. At least the song isn't described as a tribute to the Black Watch; it is a Scottish piss-take about a failed English recruitment campaign, telling lies to Scotsmen to try to get them to enlist in the British Army.
@PopularesVox Жыл бұрын
@@edeledeledel5490 It seems your opinion is framed by your dislike of the song, rather than its rendition by the singer. Is not every recruitment into an army, especially one that fights abroad, a dupe. But the British army did though provide income for many Scots, Irish, Welsh and Englishmen alike. The alternatives of poverty was the real social crime.

When it came to being pressed into Royal Navy very dangerous but you fed unlike your friends working on the land, and if you were lucky and lived and took a prize and lived to get a pension ,many of your compatriots would envy your choice in the end.. It was a harsh choice but could end up to your advantage. In fact in the end we're limits on how may experienced sailor could be pressed and how long for trade suffered due to unmanned merchant ships and loss of fishing grounds due to lack of seaman for the experienced were in high demand by both RN and Meechant Marine in Britain's expanding world trade. There is whole subject of Hostilities only Pressed Seamen etc.

Indeed, impressment was used very extensively by the British navy and the forced use of captured American sailors was a major trigger for the renewed hostilities between the two nations in 1812.

The Lyrics in the Description aren't accurate to this version of this song, but it is a version of it. I however prefer this this version of the song's lyrics to anything else. Here's are (at least to my ear) This song's iterations of lyrics. Twa recruitin' sairgants cam frae the black watch, Tae' markets and fairs some recruits for to catch, An' a' that they listed was forty an' twa, Oh list my bonnie laddie an' come, come awa, Ch. - For it's over the mountains, and over the main, It's Through Gibraltar tae France and Spain, Get a feather tae your bonnet, and a kilt aboon your knee Enlist me bonnie laddie an' come awa wi me Oh laddie, yee dinna ken the danger that ye're in, If your horses wis to fleg an' your ousen wis to rin. This greedy auld fairmer winna pey your fee, Enlist me bonnie laddie an' come awa wi me (Ch) It is intae the barn an' oot o' the byre, This greedy auld fairmer thinks ye'll never tire, For it's a slavery job and a low degree, Enlist me bonnie laddie an' come awa wi me. (Ch) Wi your tatty poorin,s an' your meal an' kail, Your soor sowen soorins an' your ill-brewed ale, Yer buttermilk and whey, aye, your breid fired raw, Enlist me bonnie laddie an' come come awa. (Ch) Now, if ye've got a sweetheart an' bairn, Ye'll easily get rid o' that ill-spun yarn, Twa rattles o' the drum an that'll pey it a', Enlist me bonnie laddie an' come awa.o

This "wall" was built after buses and restaurants were exploding on a daily basis right in front of my eyes...right? If you are talking about injustice then you should also talk about what happened to Jews in ALL OTHER ARAB COUNTRIES... where they were murdered, expelled etc. War is hideous, no doubt. But countries should be able to recover if they have good leadership and not infested by religious extremists. 10 years before the "wall" was built Israel offered a very generous peace plan and then again 2 years before, and then again 3 years after...0 times was it accepted by Palestinians...so we had to make sure that buses stop exploding in our cities...I wonder how would you react?
@carminumbarritus82203 жыл бұрын
The wall might be a pragmatic solution to prevent violent attacks, and it has certainly achieved that. It remains however, a visible symbol of division between people in an area known as the Holy Land. It has created a cauldron of resentment and a breeding ground for extremism which Hamas has exploited. The current solution is untenable for both sides of this divide, as the recent rocket attacks have demonstrated. "But countries should be able to recover if they have good leadership and not infested by religious extremists." I honestly cannot see a solution in the short term, as there isn't any realistic discussion to find one. Hamas especially has a grip which has now become entrenched backed by Iran's meddling, whilst Israel's leadership is not motivated to attempt any positive action.
