Civil War Songs Of The North

Civil War Songs Of The North

Wisely deciding against taking sides, Tennessee Ernie Ford opted to record two albums celebrating the centenary of the American Civil War in 1961, with Civil War Songs of the North being complimented by Civil War Songs of the South. In both instances Ernie faced a herculean task; how to whittle down literally hundreds of songs from either side of the conflict into a twelve track album for each. Every song chosen had to invoke images of patriotism and valour, although the arrangements and instrumentation brought the songs up to date. As has often been stated, if anyone could have turned these pieces into favourites a hundred years on, it was Tennessee Ernie Ford.
