A song about a US army mutiny in Cornwall during WW2
folk rock
I am a singer songwriter based in Torquay and I record my songs as the Legendary Ten Seconds.
The Legendary Ten Seconds started off as the solo music project of Ian Churchward during the time when he was the lead guitar player of The Morrisons who were featured on John Peel's radio one show back in 1987. In 2013 Lord Zarquon joined Ian's music project and since then various guest musicians and vocalists have helped out in the recording studio. The most recent musician to join the project is Jay Brown who has helped to compose and record a song called the Time Stream. The Legendary Ten Seconds have recorded many critically acclaimed English folk rock albums which chronicle the Wars of the Roses and the life and times of Richard III in England during the late 15th century. The albums are available on Amazon and itunes and the band have donated money to a scoliosis charity from some of the income generated from the sale of their music.

This song was composed after reading a book about a US army mutiny that took place in Launceston, Cornwall during WW2
Lyrics
Captain Richard Scott described the scene In the town square where he'd been There outside the shops and stores Some USA soldiers would break the law Let's downplay the root cause of the riot Jim Crow you know must be kept quiet Captain Richard Scott described the scene In Launceston town where he'd been A group of men were by the White Hart Then shots were fired in the dark Let's downplay the root cause of the fight That caused such drama on that night Let's downplay the root cause of the fight That caused such drama on that night Captain Richard Scott described the scene In Launceston town where he'd been From camp Pennygillam he thought they came There would be found the ones who'd take the blame Captain Richard Scott described the scene In the town square where he'd been There outside the shops and stores Some USA soldiers would break the law Captain Richard Scott described the scene
