BODY OF WAR

Even though I own most of these songs, (and in fact have put most of them on my previous XMAS CDS) this is still an impressive collection of musicans and the money's going to a great cause. (All proceeds from the sale of the album will benefit Iraq Veterans Against the War.)



"Tomas Young, compiled two discs worth of music that inspired him when he was paralyzed from the chest after being shot during his first week of duty in Iraq. The soundtrack, titled Body of War: Songs That Inspired an Iraq War Veteran, features songs “that inspired, motivated, and at times, literally saved me over the past few years,” explains Young. The 30-song, two-disc album will be released March 18 via Warner Music's Sire Records label."
