Speaking Of That CD Programme Director Christian Claesberg & DJ Andrea Stolle Of Radio Teutoburger Wald The Old Stringhouse Music Show In Herford Germany Wrote "It Is A Masterpiece Of Music! At The Moment Our Listeners Likes The Tunes #11 #13 #14 And #17 A Little Girl’s Bedtime Good Time Delaware Bourbon Street Our Only Chesapeake . Remo Ricaldone Host Of The American Roots Radio Show In Condove Italy Said "I Consider It Powerful And Inspiring Both Lyrically And Musically!"
The Lead Song Mad Cowboy Disease Skewers The Bush-Cheney Neo Con War Policies With Serious Humor In The Tradition Of Vic's Hero Phil Ochs. Wilmington News Journal Writer Gary Soulsman Once Referred To Vic As “the Pete Seeger Of Delaware”. Indeed Environmental Preservation Themes And Tributes To Local Places Are Celebrated In Such Titles As White Clay Creek Our Only Chesapeake The Brandywine And The Christina The Fog Watch On Limestone Road The Swans On Smalley's Pond And The Rugged Hills Of Landenberg.
Several Of These Songs Are On Broadsides & Retrospectives Including Good Time Delaware The Chuck Berry-Style Boogie Tribute To The Beach That Calls For Protection Of The Coastal Zone Because "there's Got To Be A Place To Let The Wildlife Run!" A Perennial Children's Favorite That Has Been In Vic’s Repertoire For More Than 25 Years Is Called The Frog Jog. It’s A Silly Fantasy Full Of Frog Frolic Set In The Swamps Of Sussex County Delaware.

The Fog Watch was a poem by Vic Sadot's Uncle George Reuter that Vic adapted to music. The poet looks into the fog and a vision of the past comes rolling through. There are two drovers in an oxen drawn wagon taking their harvest to market. In the days before paved roads this trek was an annual overnight adventure that the farmers looked forward to.
As they trod over the muddy roads they talk about what they want to buy when they get to the market in Dover, Delaware. "First I'll buy cloth for my good lady Sadie, a bottle of rum for my good neighbor Brady, flour for bisuits, some bacon and beans, seed for growing spring garden greens on my land. " A trip that takes us a few hours today required an overnight stay at the Mermaid Tavern Inn on the way to and on the way back from the marketplace.
