Something for the weekend. Riding a Raid, sung by Bobby Horton, the man who has dedicated his life to bringing Civil War music to modern audiences. Stuart and his cavalry troopers were the glamor boys of the Army of the Northern Virginia. Twice they rode around the Army of the Potomac, and until 1863 they completely dominated the Union cavalry, although they were usually heavily outnumbered on the battlefield. This song captures well the spirit of the cavaliers in grey.
