At a time when the fighting in Iraq brings out more pain than patriotism in a majority of vocal Americans, Keni Thomas--a smooth-voiced Georgia musician and former Army member of Task Force Ranger, sent into the Mogadishu of Black Hawk Down--steps forward with a collection of songs that restore the poignancy and eloquence of the good fight. Never bombastic in the vein of Toby Keith nor rabble-rousing à la Darryl Worley, Thomas--who wrote or cowrote all 10 tracks with an ear for classic country and rock--simply tells the stories of the men and women in uniform. "Not Me," which boasts no less than Vince Gill and Emmylou Harris on harmony vocals, is an eloquent and understated paean to leadership and courage, while "Circle on the Cross," featuring a spoken introduction by Kenny Rogers, spotlights a military marking worth remembering. Carolyn Dawn Johnson, Michael McDonald, Blackhawk, and Shawn Mullins also lend their efforts to this surprising, affecting project.

Moving CD with a message.......2007-05-12

I had the good fortune of listening to Keni around Memorial Day. In case you didn't know, Keni was involved in Task Force RANGER that was elegantly presented in "Black Hawk Down" Book and Movie. He is a great story teller and that's reflected in his songs....moving, poignant, and relevant. Great story teller and a great singer/performer.

Awesome - A Great Surprise.......2007-01-08

An awesome album from start to finish. I have already purchased another copy for a friend. Extremely well written songs especially if you have even a single patriotic bone in your body.

For any Serviceman/Servicewoman.......2006-04-15

Having been in the military and served with the Rangers plus being a musician now, anyone who has ever had to go to combat can relate to this CD.
A soldiers story combines mom's apple pie c rations and MRE's all rolled up into one. Keni's voice draws one to listen to the lyrics more so than most singers.

If you have ever been in combat anywhere, anytime...this CD will bring tears to your eyes and make your chest swell with pride. Keni T's been there and done that. And this CD is living proof of the enourmous patriotism our country holds for our Troops in harms way. It's a gut wrenching story and those who have been there........must hear it! RLTW

Keni Thomas Review.......2006-03-24

Great CD. I saw this performer with an USO tour in Iraq and had to buy the cd. A patriotic must!

A true tribute to those who have served........2006-01-16

This complete CD is a great tribute to all that have served and put country before self. There is not a song on this CD that you will not listen to over and over. To know what Keni Thomas has been through and hear it in his music is great. Everyone should own this, CD even if it only gets played a few times a year on the 4th of July, Veterans Day and Memorial Day. BUY BUY BUY
