Music reviews of SOUTHERN SOLDIER: Favorite Camp Songs of the Civil War
Music Review: A Musical Masterpiece!!
Rating: 5 Stars
WOW!!!!! Just found this in Gettysburg.The Instrumentals are incredible!! The Fiddle ( Fred Ewers) and Irish Whistle/ Fife( Marty Groody ) blend together as one instrument. The Military Drum (John Frayler)and Bones/Bass/ Tambo (Bob Beeman) really kick it up a notch!!
Fred Ewers "I'm a Good O'L Rebel" is a masterpiece. Together with the Fretless Banjo and Vocals..... this is an Historical Gem !! Well done ye boys of the 2nd!!
Description of SOUTHERN SOLDIER: Favorite Camp Songs of the Civil War
SOUTHERN SOLDIER is a collection of songs and melodies which were well known to Southerners and Northerners alike; tunes that were a familiar and comfortable part of life in the years leading up to the War Between the States. Many of these compositions were written by the likes of Stephen Foster and Daniel Emmett, who were giants of the popular music industry of their day.Some of the titles, OL' DAN TUCKER, DIXIE'S LAND and ARKANSAS TRAVELER are still familiar to the modern-day ear. Other titles on this album, though not familiar to the eye, will be quickly recognizable to the ear. ALL selections on this album are performed on authentic instruments of the period and were chosen for the appealing nature of their rhythms and melodies. They are presented with as unique and individual a spirit as one might expect from a true Confederate camp band of the era.
Over the years since 1989, when the band was formed, we have made a concerted effort to grow in the music and the history of those times. This collection of songs and melodies that the soldiers brought with them from home to the war represents the fruit of that growth. It was and continues to be our intent as a group of musicians and living historians to try to capture the spirit and emotion of those tumultuous years. We believe that this album, SOUTHERN SOLDIER, has succeeded in that effort.
