Killed at the Ford

(Words: H. W. Longfellow, Music: The Vacant Chair) Video Wizards Music (BMI)

With Matt Cartsonis, David Bourne, Jennifer Warnes: vocals

Longfellow the poet captured this mid-war story; the music, “Vacant Chair”, is from the same era, America’s Civil War. “Vacant Chair” tells of a soldier who
did not make it. I thank Jennifer Warnes, Matt, and David for their wonderful voices in the middle. It seems like these were meant to be together: the words, this song.
