John Morgan (The Wurzels) : ウィキペディア英語版 | The Wurzels
The Wurzels are a Scrumpy and Western band from Somerset, England, best known for their number one hit ''The Combine Harvester'' and number three hit ''I Am A Cider Drinker'' in 1976.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=1000 number ones: The Seventies )〕 ==Name== The name of the band was dreamt up by founder Adge Cutler. It appears to be short for mangelwurzel, a crop grown to feed livestock, and 'wurzel' is also sometimes used in the UK (perhaps only as a result of the band's name) as a synonym for 'yokel'.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/somerset/content/articles/2006/08/24/somerset_sounds_the_mangledwurzels_feature.shtml )〕 The Wurzels' particular "genre" of music was named Scrumpy and Western after the group's first EP of the same name, issued early in 1967. Scrumpy is a name given to traditionally-made cider in southwest England, popular amongst The Wurzels and their fans, and frequently referred to in their songs.
