Can you do it with children? I see a trend in some districts around where I live if they could.

Mine was 'Go away little girl' Steve Lawrence.

Conception was Elvis Presley 'Good luck Charm'...

Mine was Ted Weems, Heartaches.
Conception song, Perry Como Surrender. 

This does not explain my partiality to AC/DC.

Maybe not in an obvious way; but there will be some obscure but meaningful connection. Seriously.

"Necessity is the mother of invention."

has been inverted to mean:

"Invention is the mother of necessity."

To mark the 150th anniversary of the end of the American Civil War, Kris Kristofferson looks back over the music and musical legacy of the Civil War era.

Music played an integral role in the American Civil War. There were huge numbers of musicians in the army; buglers, drummers and brass bands were a common feature in camps and on battlefields, North and South. Many soldiers played instruments in camp, swapping musical styles, songs, and techniques and thousands of new songs were written and published.

The war spawned a body of songs that over the years have enhanced understanding of the mood and sentiments of the men and women - from both the North and South - engaged in that long and costly struggle, which claimed more than half a million lives. The outpouring of new music that focused on the war and its participants formed the very foundation of a nation's music. Songs like Home Sweet Home, Battle Cry of Freedom, Lorena, John Brown's Body, were known across the land.

In episode one and in the company of historians, music experts, songwriters and musicians, Kris explores the history of the conflict through its music and discovers how and why the Civil War generated so many of the songs and musical styles found in American music today.

In episode two, Kris looks at the musical legacy of the Civil War over the past century and its impact on American popular music today. He discovers how the war inspired 20th and 21st century songwriters and artists including Elvis Presley, Lynyrd Skynyrd and The Band.

With music from the worlds of country, rock, jazz, blues and folk and tracks from Bob Dylan, Alison Krauss, Bruce Springsteen, Dolly Parton, The Decemberists, Carolina Chocolate Drops, The Band, Bernice Johnson Reagan and Pete Seeger.

Got a question for MV and have no clue where to post it so I'm trying this group first. When dark matter was on, there were discussion forums set up for each show and bellgabbers were posting about the show while the show was on. Is that going to happen when MITD starts? I love that idea and hope it's going to be a thing again.

Well, I'll be listening in since it'll air around 5 here. It's ironic, but Ashokan Farewell, the piece that everyone remembers from Ken Burns Civil War series is actually a modern fiddle piece by Jay Ungar that he calls a piece in the style of a Scottish lament written by a Jewish guy from the Bronx.

Jay used to offer classes at a Fiddle Camp in the summer, and he wrote this song as a "farewell" at the end of the class. I used to marvel at how his fat, little fingers could produce such precise sounds.

  What's comforting about Americans joining ISIS, is that they are the type of person who would announce it on social media.

  Camp Joy has a higher per capita IQ than ISIS.
