    According to NPR, some servicemen with a bluegrass band played for the local population after US occupied Japan, I hope music should be used more often instead of weapons of war to unite and disolve borders, I can also say the same for the Red Army Choir singing the US National Anthem, glorious to behold.

      Very well said Crurned. If only politicians thought this exact way maybe Jesus would hold off a little longer before He comes back for us..

    I am honored that so many people have enjoyed this video. These guys are absolutely great. This video and all the songs from this session are so well known to me that they are a backdrop to many of our family memories. I was completely unaware that this was not well known to the rest of the world. I have several more songs from this session and will post them as soon as my computer is fixed and working again.
