CD Reviews

Civil War Letters Come Alive

John A. Hewes | Phoenix, AZ | 08/30/2005

(5 out of 5 stars)

"I love folk music anyway, but this CD is really something special! The words of Civil War letters come alive in the music. I had ancestors who fought in this war. Now I understand a little more about what they were fighting about."

John Brown - Sword of the Spirit ~ Mapgie

"Inspiring music, some tracks touching (Heaven Is Less than Fair) and (Pretty Little Bird); some inspiring (Goodbye to Old Ohio; Captain) and some revealing of the truths of the feelings of the time (John Copeland). Not too much music of today can bring a tear to the eye, but this one will certainly pull on your heartstrings. Highly recommended!"

Spirited story!

K. Glass | Adks, NY USA | 10/30/2000

(5 out of 5 stars)

"Magpie's retelling of the John Brown Saga is filled with energy. It reflects careful research into the Harper's Ferry insurrection and uses the research to shape the music. "Bound for Old Ohio" conveys the sense of purpose in the army; "Mary Brown, Abolitionist" and "Pretty Little Bird" show the strength of the characters who supported the men who fought. Yet, songs, like "Heaven is less than Fair" and "Dangerfield" are so tender they bring tears to my eyes.The album as a whole awoke in me the feeling of duty with which John Brown fought and died."
