"The Lees of Old Virginia" [Remastered] - 1776 Complete Instrumental Backing Tracks
Музыка
A remastered karaoke/instrumental backing track of "The Lees of Old Virginia" from the musical 1776, music and lyrics by Sherman Edwards, book by Peter Stone. Peter H. Hunt directed the original production, which starred William Daniels, Virginia Vestoff, Howard Da Silva, Ken Howard, and Paul Hecht. The music was orchestrated by Eddie Sauter. The playoff to the track is appended to the end of the track.
This version of the track includes the extended intro heard in the 1972 film version, and starts off with the "G. Washington" drum roll that plays in the scene. Additionally, this instrumental extends the playoff by four measures, again according to how it is heard in the film version.
UP NEXT: "But, Mr. Adams"
