4th of July specific tunes.

... anything but Proud to be an American ... that song sucked first time I heard it, and it certainly hasn't gotten any better over time.

1812 Overture of course. The Mercury Living Presence anniversary box set, with the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, Dorati conducting. They used actual French muzzle loading cannons as specified by the author with special attention paid to the environment in order to simulate battlefield conditions. :thumbsup:
