Celtic Music Radio, like most other broadcasters, observed the silence.

Leading up to 11, we played Dick Gaughan's recording of Hamish Henderson's "51st (Highland) Division's Farewell To Sicily"

After the silence - which was actually the ambient noise from the presenter's garden in Fife - we had Eric Bogle's own recording of his "No Man's Land" ("The Green Fields of France")

What other songs of our genre would be appropriate?

Bruce.
