Re: [DL] Civil War songs



These aren't traditonal Civil War songs but they are somewhat related. They are from an Irish punk band by the name of Dropkick Murphys. These would probably be more suted for fight songs. You might want to give them a listen before you buy any CDs though (*COUGH*napster*COUGH*) because these songs may not be everybody's cup of tea.
 
Dropkick Murphys:
    Cadence to Arms - Bagpipes with a twist
    Amazing Grace - Same as above
    The Fighting 69th - About the all Irish 69th regiment during the Civil War
    Bar Room Hero - Good for bar fights
    Blood & Wiskey - ditto
