The Love Your Neighbors Project - A celebration of songs from the neighboring countries to the USA and other immigrant songs along with some songs composed by us Yankees.
The Square Dance Heroes along with Buffalo Dave and The Wolf Rock Band are in the process of recording and releasing music that is part of a "Love Your Neighbors" project.
We hope we aren't being too political here because all political parties have some good ideas and some bad ideas. However, loving your neighbors is something we hope folks from all political parties and all countries try to achieve!
Here is the music we have released to date for the "Love Your Neighbors" project - each release has several versions of the song and / or several different songs - we hope you enjoy!
The Mexican Hat Dance - The national dance of our neighbor to the South performed by the Square Dance Heroes and dedicated to our Mexican friends, family and neighbors!
Go Down Moses - Let My People Go! - With important religious events occurring (or just occurred or are about to occur) for friends and neighbors of the Christian, Jewish, Islam, and Buddhist faiths - we thought this was an excellent song to add to our Love Your Neighbors series of releases. We have includes several different versions of the song including: traditional, square dance, jazzy flute, instrumental square dance, and instrumental traditional - hope you enjoy!
Will The Circle Be Unbroken? I Am Bound for the Promised Land! - New album that includes some songs that had been previously released as part of a Sonya and Dave project but were taken down by another distributor. Now released along with new tracks through a different distributor. The Bound for the Promised Land song fits the immigrant theme of the Love Your Neighbors project and is released for the Passover / Ramadan / Lent / Good Friday / Easter season. There is even a version of "Will the Circle Be Unbroken" done with an original Good Friday lyric by Buffalo Dave!
Stop You War! - Originally created by The Wolf Rock Band and DD Rapman as a message to Vladimir Putin to stop his tragic and unnecessary war in Ukraine. This is now also presented as a message to others involved in war(s) – we pray that peace will prevail soon! We pray for an end to the genocide and other unnecessary killings occurring in our world - can we please learn to love our neighbors!
This Train Is Bound For Glory, All Aboard! While enjoy a meal with Christian, Jewish, and Islamic friends, I brought up the point that the Old Testament of the Bible is the Jewish scripture and the fact that The Koran also has many of the same stories! I asked everyone - being so similar, why can't we all get along better? Then someone mention that we were all getting along while we ate dinner, so it depends on how you look at things - Is the glass half empty or half full! Ending on a positive note about where we pray this world is headed, we hope this Train is Bound For Glory! All Aboard! Check back for more music releases!
Blessings to you from The Square Dance Heroes, DD Rapman, Buffalo Dave and The Wolf Rock Band
