Yes, I agree. A lot of Lightfoot fans listened again to Pride Of Man after 9/11. Very chilling. It's funny, because quite a few songwriters sat down and wrote something specifically for 9/11, yet this song - written about another event in ancient history - really captures the feelings and imagery perfectly. FYI, if you are interested in Hamilton's recording, it's on his CD Paths Of Victory, available from his web site. That CD also includes 7 (!) Dylan covers, some being very obscure songs. I'll be adding clips of the songs in the next few days.
