Free Music Notes for The Civil War Collection, Volume II
Free Music Review: Absolutely Excellent Old Time Historic Folk Music!
Hit: 5 Stars
For all of us that were traumatized by their high school history class, let's call this old time Bluegrass or Folk Music. This is a repeat of their first Civil War volume, and this review is a repeat of my admiration for the first volume. This CD is a bit slower paced and adds a Tin Whistle. I like to play my Irish Drum, Bones and Spoons to the first album. I like to play my Bouzouki, Banjo and Guitar to the second. Thank you for the Irish influence. My ancestors fought on both sides of the Civil War. That makes a lot of sense, Irish killing Irish under generals with English last names. A strange twist of fate. Unfortunately, this was one of the only alternatives to the Great Potato Famine back in the motherland. What if they put down their rifles and picked up their instruments and had a huge jam session instead of a war? Please read my review of the first album. The back up guitar in this album stands out more, and I love the skillful "bridge" transitions between chords. If the Jim Taylor group wants to keep making these CD's, I'll keep buying them. This is old time music at its best by an excellent group.
