OH SHENANDOAH - (Across the Wide Missouri) A Cappella Version
I love this melody and melancholy sentiment. This version is A Cappella and from my CD Cloudwalker nominated for best vocal at the NM Music Industry Awards.
This exact version is called "Across the Wide Missouri" on the album/CD Cloudwalker by Randy Granger. Available as a download on itunes, amazon, cdbaby. cdbaby.com/cd/randygranger or randygranger.net and on iTunes itunes.apple.com/us/album/cloudwalker/id203988918
Please support independent artists like myself. I tour constantly and would enjoy coming to your town. How about a house concert? No venue too small.
The song is also called Across the Wide Missouri in other sources. I tried to mix images of the Apalachee Indians, an old Foundry photo in the Apalachians and images of the Shenandoah River Valley as much as I could find them. I'm not trying to be a historian, documentarian or a purist...instead I wanted to convey the feeling of the song. I hope I did that to some extent and that you enjoy it. Our American history is intertwined and being of Native and some mixed ancestry I appreciate it all respectfully.
thank you for viewing and I know you'll forgive the misspellings.
