Thread Name: Censorship-songs of certain folk singers?
Subject: RE: Censorship-songs of certain folk singers?
I left Scotland in 1966 to record an LP of Scottish Republican Songs in London for Major Minor, sung by Nigel Denver because Glasgow city Council banned some of my songs. I still have a newspaper cutting from the Sunday Post where two Labour MPs complained about me "insulting the Queen",
Times have changed, today there was a march in Glasgow for Scottish Independence and the police reckoned there were over 90,000 marchers.
