Can I get some DU music recommendations?

[mrgorth]

Seeing the link between this anti-war movement and the one for 'nam, I'm thinking I'd like to pick some 60s, esp. anti-war protest, type music. Where should I start? I'd like to grab a compilation thing like "Freedom Rock" but I'm not sure if that's sold anymore. I'd definitely like to get some O'Jays (Love Train) and Buffalo Springfield on there.

Thanks.

3. Marvin Gaye - What's Goin' On?

Jefferson Airplane - Volunteers and We Could Be Together
Barry McGuire - Eve of Destruction
Bob Dylan - Masters of War
Richie Havens - Handsome Johnny
Coven - One Tin Soldier

I could go on for a LONG time :).

Handsome Johnny (written by Lou Gossett, Jr. believe it or not):

Hey look yonder, tell me what's that you see,
marching to the fields of Concord
It looks like Handsome Johnny with a musket in his hand
Marching to the Concord war. Hey, Marching to the concord war.

Hey look yonder, tell me what you see
Marching to the fields of Gettysburg
It looks like Handsome Johnny with flintlock in his hand
Marching to the Gettysburg war, Hey marching to the Gettysburg war

Hey, it's along the hard road It's a long hard road
It's a long hard road Before we'll be free.

Hey look yonder, tell me what's that you see
Marching to the fields of Dunkirk
It looks like Handsome Johnny with a carbine in his hand
Marching to the Dunkirk war, Hey marching to the Dunkirk war

Hey look yonder, tell me what you see
Marching to the fields of Korea
It looks like Handsome Johnny with an M1 in his hand
Marching to the Korean war, Hey marching to the Korean war

Hey look yonder, tell me what you see
Marching to the fields of Viet Nam
It looks like Handsome Johnny with an M16
Marching to the Viet Nma war, Hey marching to the Viet Nam war

Hey, look yonder, tell me what you see
Marching to the fields of Birmingham
It looks like Handsome Johnny with his hand rolled in a fist
Marching to the Birmingham war. Hey, marching to the Birmingham war

Oh what is the use of even singing this song?
Some of you are not even listening
Tell me what it is we have to do.
Wait for the fields to start glistening?
And wait for the bullets to start whistling?

9. Has anybody heard the new song: "Bring the troops home now"?

I heard the song on local folk programming and did not get the artist. I think he said Pete Seeger, but I am not sure.
