Eight years ago, Linzi and I put together our 4th of July collection. Based on what we wanted in the collection, and the help of napster, we collected a great mix. Those of you that still have it on your Ipod playlist may want to call it up and listen to it again.

Several years later, Heather and I sat down to do a mix that was a little heavier. It is called Americana Rock.
It was in response to the notion that any patriotic rock series worth its salt has to have Jimmi Hendricks Star Spangled Banner. I agree for the first 50 bars of the song.. after that it loses my interest.
So here is that mix:

Star Spangled Banner--- Jimi Hendricks at Woodstock
