A little video in honor of President's Day. Honest Abe dropped in over the weekend
so I thought I'd play him a tune to cheer him up.
This song, the "Battle Cry of Freedom" seemed to do the trick.
"Battle Cry of Freedom", written in 1862 by George F. Root, sides firmly with the Union cause.
It is still heard, usually in conjunction with presentations about the American Civil War, most notably in recent years,
on the soundtrack for Ken Burns' series on the Civil War.
This arrangement for solo guitar is very similar to the performance of the song on my 3rd CD,
Wayfaring Stranger, available from CD Baby. Also available as mp3 download.
