Really good. We live in an era created by the conclusion of WWII, and the half century that came before is mostly forgotten, but for the first time in the weary roll of centuries it's all there in pictures, film and audio recordings for those who want it. Not sure why "Freebird", but then again, "Why not?"

@ThePeaceableKingdom Thank you for the feedback! I only choose Freebird because it was 10min. long. I am actually thinking of getting a new track from audioswap. Thanks again!
