Status: offline 		For any of those who like to occassionally play theme music to the nation you're playing, here's some Russian stuff: http://www.okay.com/realmedia/russian.htm The Cossack Patrol, Apotheosis, and Soviet National Anthem are particularly good. German or American military music isn't terribly difficult to come by, but if anyone has ANY military music links please provide them. THANKS!

They knew how to crack the plaster and have a lot of fun while they were doing it. Highly recommended. Six stars out of five. Bing

Status: offline 		This is a great thread. But I have a question: The movie "Battle of the Bulge" has a great song sung by the young German tankers just as the General is reviewing the troops after seeing the new tanks he is going to get. The General is downcast at the youth he sees in front of him and he is about to refuse to take the youngsters into battle. One of the kids starts singing a song. They all join in and the General changes his mind. It gave me goosebumps listening to it. Does anyone have, or know the name of, that song? Thanks

Perhaps you will be surprised to know (or perhaps not) is that the recording of "Tipperary" they are always playing on the sub "Das Boot" is made by this ensemble! Not strictly accurate, hohum...

I had not paid much attention, tell the truth and I've seen the movie twice. I LOVE the Red Army Band and Chorus rendition of "Tipperary": It's a long vay to Tipp-ah-var-ee ...
It's a long vay to goh ..
It's a long vay to Tipp-ah-var-ee ...
Du deh sveetest gehrl I know .... The above is in affecionate fun, because they were really something. Had a tenor - forget his name - strictly operatic quality voice, the guy was downright great. First or second LP, they have a number called IIRC "General Dance". It starts with what music profesionals call "bass drum smash", Ivan lays into the drum repeatedly, most likely a bass drum player will never again get a solo to START a number. This number is what we used to refer to - in my younger days - as a "lease breaker". Not that long ago, the Red Army B&C CD's were available on iimports. Retailers such as Tower and others might still have them. I hope so, because all kidding aside they were the most exciting service-type entertainment around. I never saw them in a theater but I understand their dancers were also the best - I believe the Politburo leaders saw them as artistic ambassadors to the outside world, which if true might have been one of their few truly smart moves.
Great stuff! And ... you will NEVER hear a "Volga Boatman" the way these guys do it. Bing

Actually I thought you must have been talking about a movie I had not seen, which had a lot of good soundtracks. I suppose East Front should get an award for the most martial music on a wargame cd.
