fail?

Mr Ken Anderson is dreadful. Sorry, but I can't phrase it any other way. He sounds as if he were emulating Darth Vader slowed down from 30ips to 15ips on playback.

@jslasher1 why don't you show us your version. Ken has been ill for awhile now, and I WON'T tell him about your comment.

untrueman The Lincoln Portrait is not a song,and is not meant to sound like a piece of music. It has a band in the background, but is also presented as a narrative with no music at all. Sorry you don't like it. Ken who is now 81 years old thinks of it as important. Hope you like some of the

other things he has here on youtube.

Hate this song.

[jslasher1]

@untrueman NOT a song; an orchestral work. If you hate it, why did you listen to it:?

[dogsx4]

This is a historical composition and reminds us

of a time when a President spoke to the people, and cared about America.

[kensingsrobeson]

Thank you for listening. Lincoln was an important

man for the time and very unique. America would

not be the same if not for him.
