Music reviews of HARD ROAD: Favorite Camp Songs of the Civil War
Music Review: South Carolina Leads the Way - Again!
Rating: 5 Stars
This CD is probably the best yet for Civil War music enthusiasts who like their music authentic and earthy. The String Band have managed to capture the essence of music as the soldiers would have heard and played it. I particularly enjoyed the version of 'When Johnny Comes Marching Home', and I defy anybody not to give a 'Rebel Yell' when listening to 'Jine The Cavalry'. I look forward to their next Civil War offering - there are so many great songs just waiting for their special touch!
Description of HARD ROAD: Favorite Camp Songs of the Civil War
The 2nd South Carolina String Band recorded their first album, WE'RE TENTING TONIGHT, in 1991. Containing 15 of the most popular songs of the War Between the States, it was well received from the start and continues to have strong appeal. In fact, it was so well received that the band was encouraged to produce a second album, WE ARE A BAND OF BROTHERS, released two years later in 1993. This recording profited from the experience gained since the first - being produced in a better studio with better technology - as well as from two years of performances together by a band whose reputation was rapidly spreading. This second album contained another 15 of the most well known songs of the era, thus making the two together a sort of "Top 30" of the Civil War.Many years later, these albums continue to attract listeners and fans, new and old. So much so that, pursuant to countless requests to bring them both out on CD, we have done just that! We are proud to offer our first two albums together at last on one recording. The best of WE'RE TENTING TONIGHT and WE ARE A BAND OF BROTHERS, are here presented with a driving, spirited and exciting sound worthy of the men whose memory and spirit we strive to honor and evoke.
