by Songs Of The Civil War / O.s.t.

Overview

Actually an extension and improvement upon White Mansions, this collection features rock and folk stars doing Civil War songs, and all of it is well done. Songs of the Civil War is a good companion to the Dirt Band's Will the Circle Be Unbroken. ~ Bruce Eder
