From: Bwncath ; Year: 2017; Genre: Folk Rock Discovered this Welsh band the other day, and as always, I love anything different, which Bwncath definitely fits. From wot I understand Bwncath in the Welsh language translates as Buzzard, hence the band's logo I suppose. Anyway, I know absolutely no Welsh in either written or spoken form, which they sing in, however, from wot I have read, this track is about the famous Welsh pirate Bartholomew Roberts , (aka: Black Bart), who was the most successful buccaneer of the golden age of piracy. On this one they idealize the exploits and stories of the long-dead countryman. I really like the music, especially the reverb-heavy surf style guitar that adds a lot to the overall folk rock sound of the band. Hear Barti Ddu on YouTube. My song pick 1 year ago today: Paul Kantner and Jefferson Starship - Home/Have You Seen the Stars Tonight My song pick 2 years ago today: Molly Hatchet - Backstabber ...
It's true - Pat invented the Funky Friday.
ReplyDeleteWas racking the brain trying to come up with a really long funk tune to put up today, until I remembered that not only did a Songfight denizen do one, but Pat and I recorded our own version of it.
Yeah, I had another tune in mind off of his blog, but then I figured what better way to do a shout out to him and his blog than visit one of his "Funky Friday" picks on the Friday of my theme week.
