Here’s some music for Veterans Day.
Eve of destruction, I never thought I’d say back then, you ain’t seen nothing yet. But back then people were free and pushing to stop war and the draft less and not focus as much on the enemy within but if it came on our beaches even if they joined, not start it.
The Eastern world, it is explodin’
Violence flarin’, bullets loadin’
You’re old enough to kill but not for votin’
You don’t believe in war, but what’s that gun you’re totin’?
And even the Jordan river has bodies floatin’
But you tell me
Over and over and over again, my friend
How you don’t believe
We’re on the eve of destruction

One of my firsts songs I played on the guitar House of the Rising Sun was from this band. This song was about unanimous for the most popular song for the VN war.
