Great thread with great contributions. Some ideas for songs I must revist, and a few new ones. Thanks all. Let me add a vote for "Mary Ellen Carter," and "How Can I Keep From Singing." And let me add "Let The Band Play Dixie" by the late, great Bib Gibson, and also "Christmas in the Trenches" by John McCutcheon, both attesting to the power of song. How can you go wrong with that?
