High Plains Girl posted two great songs and sent me on a trail searching two of my favorite musicians hailing from Scotland (my roots): Eric Bogle and the group, Silly Wizard. I love how this one song expresses beautifully in two languages (German, my heritage too) a protest of war’s carnage and duplicity.

The appeal in these two songs rests in the powerful vocals and the raw realness of their lyrics.
Good Morning, JRuth! I am being asked to download Flash Player to listen to your songs, so I can’t do it right now. But I can’t wait to hear the songs!
They’re folksy! I put a link on your post and it oddly refused to cooperate.
