You might appreciate these - Fire in the Sky - http://artists.mp3s.com/artist_song/2475/2475506.html Witnesse's Waltz - http://artists.mp3s.com/artist_song/2473/2473673.html Hope Eyrie - http://artists.mp3s.com/artist_song/2475/2475523.html All are modern folk, written about Columbia, the space program, and the fire that burns in man. The quality varies, but they all move me. I wish I could also find a site to download Julia Ecklar's 'Phoenix' about the Capsule 12 (Apollo 1) fire which killed Grissom, Chaffe and White. It's part of the 1983 'Minus Ten and Counting' album, which has long been out of print. Columbia was seven years older than my Vanagon, and I wish she had survived to put on another few million miles.
"From all who tried out of history's tide, Salute for the team that won. And the old Earth smiles at her children's reach, The wave that carried us up the beach To reach for the shining sun." - Hope Eyrie Mike Finkbiner mike_l_f@hotmail.com
