Songs on the right, you want? You've got to be kidding. What do you think Gospel is? How do you classify patriotic songs and anthems? How about wartime songs? What would you call songs about such family values as marraige and motherhood? Since conservatives tend to support the status quo, their songs might be less passionate and heated but that is not to say that, in terms of numbers, their folksongs stack up quite adequately.
And dont think that all (or even most) folksingers are radicals. For every Pete Seeger there is a Bill Monroe and for every Joan Baez there is a Ricky Skaggs. And while we're on the subject, let's clear up that nonsense that Burl Ives was a "friendly witness" to save his career. Burl Ives was a ultra patriotic man. He detested Communism because he felt it was a threat to the America he loved. The folksong community, in those years, was dominated by Woody, Pete, Lee Hays and Irwin Silber. They couldn't believe that any folksinger could be a conservative. Thus, they attributed base motives to Ives' testamony.
My politics are nowhere close to Burl Ives' but no one who knew him would doubt his sincerity.
