Folk/Acoustic

The Strawbs anyone?

Moved to folk rock but had their roots.

This one should be the Theme Title for alll the angry enraged souls over on the "OH BRITAIN WHaT HAVE YOU DONE? "part 967. Thread.

Heavy Disguise A John Ford classic. Loving the way the brass band slips in with the strums and picks..

Crowded afternoon and there's not enough room in the city today
The people assembled to hear what resembled evangelists say
Some came just to see them for a laugh
Others to be free
Fools must pretend to be wise
We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.
Tears from the crowd with men crying aloud or just ringing their hands
The love in their hearts at this joining of people from far away lands
I'd so many questions I could ask
I wanted to be free
Fools must pretend to be wise
We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.
Cheers from the crowd for a much-loved constituent lately arrived
Here's to the soul of the man who takes toll for just staying alive
Can't ignore the feeling in the air
Glad that I was there
Fools must pretend to be wise
We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.
Evening drew on with a change of opinion from left wing and right
And North accused South who were left little doubt that they needed to fight
I cannot begin to understand
The suffering tonight
Fools must pretend to be wise
We've a faith that we use as a heavy disguise.

That song always reminds me of one of my brothers - he used to be a pain in the a*** religious bigot who wanted to enter the clergy, until he went to Southampton to study theology... He graduated alright, but as a pain in the a*** atheist! He ended up doing a BSc so he could have a degree that was salable on the job market :)
