Tippaporn Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 An early take of I don't Want To Be A Soldier. Interesting list of contributing artists on this number. What a collection of talent. This might rival Lennon's album version appearing on his '71 Imagine LP. John Lennon - guitar, vocals George Harrison - slide guitar Jim Keltner - drums Klaus Voorman - bass Nicky Hopkins - piano Joey Molland - acoustic guitar Mike Pinder - acoustic guitar Steve Brendell - tambourine King Curtis - saxophone Set to footage from Experiments In Film Volume 1 from the Birth Of A Nation by DW Griffith (1915). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 Not a Nam protest song but a 60's civil rights protest song, and Nina Simone's first. Mississippi Goddam performed live at Carnegie Hall, New York, in '64. 60 years hence and soon us poor whitey's are gonna have to hit the streets with our own civil rights protests against the discrimination and suppression by black, brown, yellow, trans, LGBQT+++++++++ folks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tippaporn Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 One of the best anti Vietnam war song lyrics was John Prine's (d. April 7, 2020) Sam Stone from his '71 self-titled debut album. The song was originally titled “Great Society Conflict Veteran’s Blues.” [Verse 1]Sam Stone came home to his wife and family After serving in the conflict overseas And the time that he served had shattered all his nerves And left a little shrapnel in his knee But the morphine eased the pain And the grass grew round his brain And gave him all the confidence he lacked With a Purple Heart and a monkey on his back[Chorus]There's a hole in Daddy's arm where all the money goes Jesus Christ died for nothin', I suppose Little pitchers have big ears Don't stop to count the years Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios Mmm...[Verse 2]Sam Stone's welcome home didn't last too long He went to work when he'd spent his last dime And Sammy took to stealing when he got that empty feeling For a hundred dollar habit without overtime And the gold rolled through his veins Like a thousand railroad trains And eased his mind in the hours that he chose While the kids ran around wearin' other people's clothes [Chorus] There's a hole in Daddy's arm where all the money goes Jesus Christ died for nothin', I suppose Little pitchers have big ears Don't stop to count the years Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios Mmm...[Verse 3]Sam Stone was alone when he popped his last balloon Climbing walls while sitting in a chair Well, he played his last request While the room smelled just like death With an overdose hovering in the air But life had lost its fun And there was nothing to be done But trade his house that he bought on the G.I. Bill For a flag draped casket on a local heroes' hill[Chorus]There's a hole in Daddy's arm where all the money goes Jesus Christ died for nothin', I suppose Little pitchers have big ears Don't stop to count the years Sweet songs never last too long on broken radios Mmm... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tippaporn Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 The Doors' The Unknown Soldier off of their '68 Waiting For The Sun. Morrison was inspired to write the song's lyrics after he visited the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, at the Arlington National Cemetery on November 25, 1967. Reportedly, producer Paul Rothchild was so particular about how the song came out that it ultimately took over 130 takes to finish. The song is set to the 16mm publicity film for the song featuring the band was directed and produced by Edward Dephoure and Mark Abramson. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tippaporn Posted February 23, 2021 Share Posted February 23, 2021 The Kingston Trio were the first to cover Where Have All The Flowers Gone? written by Pete Seeger in '55. Recorded as a non-album single in '61. The video hits home as to the utter senselessness and madness which so many to this day delusionally argue as a necessary and unavoidable fact of life. The utter senselessness is the resultant matched only by the utter lack of understanding. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, fer f.k's sake, just like there are those who wish that we don't understand the true reasons for war there are those who wish we only see what they want us to see. In either case it's needed obfuscation so that they can continue on with implementing their insanity free of opposition. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zfgoJzOCgg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
