SOS. Same Old Shite.


we're all bitter, got sour grapes,

Not really .....we just can't understand how you can be so blind as to think SOS is the folkmusic of England.

It matters cos a freight train without coaches can't really prove its a freight train and your lot has long enough and opportunity enough (usually public funded) to prove its a freight train.

Nobody in any numbers is singing its songs or dancing its dances.

We want a sea change ...something strange and beautiful.

there isn't another voice like Una's of NFA on the folkscene. Qualitative judgement from that gang of wankers, give me a break.....
