I saw Derek Warfield this weekend at a Civil War reenactment in Crystal River, Florida. He was promoting his newest CD featuring Irish Songs, Ballads & Music Of The American Civil War. I found him to be very a very charming person. In the brief time I had to talk to him he explained the symbolism of the cover of his CD. It features the two flags of the North and South and also the two flags of the Northern and Southern Irish Brigades. Also shown on the cover are the four crest of the four states of Ireland. We also spoke briefly of a mutual acquaintance who had been a member of our reenactment unit until he got deeper involved with an Irish dance troup and Celtic music. All the rumors I have heard to date were found to be true!
