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.
