I have always loved Al Stewart’s song, Nostradamus, which is about the prophecies of the famous French seer.  I don’t put a lot of stock in prophetic visions but the song kicks ass.  Let’s listen…….

As always, let me know what you think.

Roads To Moscow is one of Al Stewart’s best songs.  I have always been a history buff (my History minor was a choice not a cop-out) and this song tells a somewhat historically accurate story of: the German invasion of Russia during WW II; Russia’s retreat through the Russian country side, and the eventual Russian counter attack (aided by the Russian climate) that led to Berlin and the fall of Germany.  It also presents a historically accurate twist that has the Russian soldier/narrator of the song being exiled to Siberia for the “crime” of being temporarily captured by the Germans before being released.  Take a listen and as always let me know what you think.
