 Great Place to Start a Patriotic Music Collection Sep 11, 2002
By Mark Baker
This choral collection features a majority of the best known and loved patriotic songs from our country's history. I'll admit I was a little leery of the choral part when I first picked it up, but I've found that, for the most part, it works really well. It especially stands out on the acappella version of "My Country 'Tis of Thee." It's absolutely stunning. Other fun songs are "This Land is Your Land," which I really wasn't familiar with before I bought this, and a personal recent favorite song "God Bless the USA." I love having the "Armed Forces Medley" on here so I can learn these songs. And the instrumental arrangement on "Stars and Stripes Forever Medley" at the end has me taping my toes every time I hear it. There are a couple missteps, however. I've heard better versions of "The Star Spangled Banner." I think one reason I'm disappointed with it is that they only include one verse. I love the other verses of our national anthem, and wished they'd included at least one more since they included multiple verses of all the other songs. Also, "If My People" and "God Save America," while find songs, just don't seem to fit here. Overall, you can't go wrong with this collection. I'm just starting to look for patriotic music, and this has been a wonderful first CD.

America's Favorite Patriotic Songs Sep 29, 2005

The title says it all.
Good old fashioned "goose bump" music.
 "creative" versions of our anthems Apr 19, 2011
By teacher5
Sounds like it would be a great collection especially for those of us who teach elementary school. These songs are all "personalized" so they're not what you typically hear. The music and voices are very good but not for introducing and teaching kids our patriotic songs.
 not traditional enough Jul 31, 2008

Good, but many of the songs are NOT immediately recognizable.
What's the point of having "The Star Spangled Banner" if the first half minute or so, is not immediately recognizable?
 Americas' favorite Patriotic Songs Jul 07, 2008
By J. Hurrelbrink
This is a great CD to have playing in the background at a 4th of July party. It puts everyone in a festive mood. You will often find yourself singing along. A great variety of singers.
