Rick was amazing! I did have the blessing of knowing him for a short time in the re-enactments. He is sorely missed and brought happiness to those who crossed his path. God bless.
Dang, I’m sorry for your loss, you and the boys sung so beautifully, he will be missed. But now he’s playing his music with the soldiers probably making them happy in heaven, also I love your music the very first one I heard was you guys singing battle hymn of the republic
It was an absolute pleasure to listen to you fine fellows at Gettysburg when I was a teen. Thank you so much for the memories. We bought a couple volumes. I make it a point every St. Patricks day to listen to the irish music playlist or cd when I have it on hand. While I'm sad for his passing, I'm very happy to have experienced you all in my travels.
Always the best moment at the reenactments was when I saw him and the group perform. He always had the biggest personality and always left me smiling. Thanks for the memories!
He was my teacher in Montgomery County Maryland back in the 70s - Rick was bigger than life and introduced me to theater and performing. How I loved my teacher, my friend, my role model.
I discovered your music a few years ago, and have listened to it on a weekly basis since. The breadth and scope of the music is incredible in its sheer coverage. I am very sorry for your loss.
Wherever musicians gather in the great beyond, I hope you meet up with our mutual friend (and string bass player) Marylynne Toliver from Illinois. She passed a few weeks ago. May you both RIP.
When I first got into 'Civil War' music, your band was the one I kept coming back to. Loved the enthusiasm in particular. (I know how painful it is to lose a loved one, but it must be even more so at this time of year. So sorry for your loss.)
We shall weep, and we shall miss him, there will be an empty chair....my condolences to his family and his friends. A big loss for the world of 18th and 19th century American folk music :(
I'm so sorry for your loss. Years ago when I was a kid, my Dad happened upon one of your cassettes. He gave it to me and I've had it ever since. Eventually, it was background music when I was studying for my archaeology degree. Thank you for all the memories!
Love your music. When I was a kid, my Dad and I had a tradition of always listening your music driving to and from whatever civil war reenactment we were at. Best wishes.
And on June 18, 1864 the CSS Alabama engaged in battle with the Union USS Kearsage off the coast of France. In an hour of heated gunfire the Alabama sank. One of the greatest threats to Union shipping lay at the bottom of the ocean. Valiant sacrifice and gallantry by the crews on both sides, all of them Americans. May God bless their souls, those that do not return from the sea. Thy sleep is eternal. Your memory will not be forgotten.
On the battle the U.S loss was 1 killed 2 wounded. The confederate loss was 19 dead with 9 drowned, 21 wounded and 70 captured, 38-41 sailors was rescued by a British yacht.
I get the privilege of being the first comment and like! If anyone was wondering, the CSS Alabama was a ship made by the British for the Confederacy to aid their war effort. The British government wanted to recognize the CSA as a nation because they were very valuable for their cotton industry, but the government knew that it would be a widely unpopular move among the people and could possibly cause the Union to go to war with the Canadian territories.
Why do the Confederates have all the good songs?
Yes. The csa had honor bravery and dam good taste in music among other things. Never heard of a northern gentleman😂

Happy Birthday Rick Moock, God bless you in heaven!

RIP. Rick Moock, may God honour and bless your soul. My highest condolences. 🙏
He has crossed over the river to the other side

May he rest in piece, in the name of the union, and his name
May he rest and forever be remembered
Rest in peace friend.
Been a fan of the Saturday Night at Sea album for many years!

I've been to reenactments, and I heard you guys play. I couldn't get enough of it. Edit: Still can't!

So upsetting. He will be missed.
