Summary: Here are two of the musical selections from the 2009 Inauguration. These are music cuts only for you to use as you wish on your broadcasts. No use allowed for purely promotional purposes (i.e., using the music to promote your station).
I was frozen in awe and tears at Aretha's joyous rendition of a song of joy to our new president, our country, and our God. Did you see the flags all flying and the sun shining as Ms. Franklin shook America. God smiled at this joyous event. Thank you, Aretha-from a Vietnam veteran in Missouri.
