Cruznolfart Posted November 22, 2009 Share Posted November 22, 2009 NOT politically correct! Not a gentle soul with his message. I locked onto this song when I got home from the service. The rest of the songs from the same album are equally intense indictments of the times. The man told it like he saw it and made a lot of establishment-types squirm. Anyone remember him? Warning: Not a G-rated song, coarse language. [YOUTUBE]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1efLCJ5q0nc[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruznolfart Posted November 22, 2009 Author Share Posted November 22, 2009 No, Robot, he's actually a multi-instrumentalist, predominantly traditional Irish Acoustic stuff but some modern electric as well. The other songs are different, some with full back-up, others with only one or two instruments. But every song smacks you up-side the head on one subject or another. It was early 60's and there were a LOT of cultural taboos. He took many of them head-on in his music. That particular album is the most outspoken, IMO. If you get a chance to google some of his mp3's from that one, give a listen to as many as you can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
