Ballads of the Book (Chemikal Underground). POETRY POP. Of course, just because dozens of the county’s finest bands and authors have collaborated on this album, doesn’t guarantee it’s going to be any good. But thankfully it is, it’s really very good indeed. The end product is unsurprisingly eclectic in nature - meaning, naturally, that not everything will be to everyone’s taste - but the heart of this very Scottish record lies somewhere between folk and indie rock, with some truly remarkable examples at both ends of that spectrum
For the album, see Balladeering (album). Illustration by Arthur Rackham of the Scots ballad "The Twa Corbies". A ballad /ˈbæləd/ is a form of verse, often a narrative set to music. Ballads derive from the medieval French chanson balladée or ballade, which were originally "danced songs". Ballads were particularly characteristic of the popular poetry and song of Ireland and Britain from the later medieval period until the 19th century. They were widely used across Europe, and later in Australia, North Africa, North America and South America . M. Lubbock, The Complete Book of Light Opera (New York: fts, 1962) pp. 467-68.
