April 25th, 2008

Filed under: Media,News — admin @ 6:20 pm

April 22, 2008 A number of country artists including George Jones, Charlie Daniels and Rebecca Lynn Howard are featured in a forthcoming album that pays tribute to the memories of those who died during the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

The album, Never Forget, includes several news songs made specifically for this project, which is tied to the recent christening of the U.S.S. New York. Both Charlie and Rebecca Lynn performed at that event, honoring a ship with a hull made from more than seven tons of iron and metal salvaged from the World Trade Center.

The album will also feature music by Tanya Tucker, Aaron Tippin, Tracy Lawrence, Michael Peterson and Pam Tillis, plus newcomers Lloyd Knight, Leah Faith and Justin Ryan. Never Forget will be released Aug. 26 with a portion of the proceeds earmarked for charity.

The future USS New York LPD-21 under construction at Northrop Grumman Ship Systems’ shipyard in Avondale, LA, will be the fifth amphibious transport dock of the San Antonio class. The ship was named New York after the state and incorporates in its construction steel salvaged from the World Trade Centers. Her ship motto is "Never Forget." "We're very proud that the twisted steel from the WTC towers will soon be used to forge an even stronger national defense," New York Gov. George Pataki spoke in 2002. "The USS New York will soon be defending freedom and combating terrorism around the globe, while also ensuring that the world never forgets the evil attacks of Sept. 11 and the courage and strength New Yorkers showed.” This will be the seventh U.S. ship named New York.
