Thank You!
I have downloaded the songs for the Civil War era. I am making a documentary show for the battles that was fought before and during the Gettysburg 3 day battle. I just wanted to be sure that using this music will be fine for my production and selling later on? I will certainly give credit for your web site and allowing the use of these songs.
Please reply and let me know for sure on using these songs free of any license required?
