The Medal

The Medal
La canzone apre il secondo album di Ruth Copeland intitolato I Am What I am e pubblicato nel 1971 dalla Invictus Record. L'album risulta essere arrangiato e prodotto dalla stessa Copeland, anche se è opinione diffusa che il vero produttore dell'album sia stato il marito Jeffrey Bowen che era uno staff producer alla Motown Records (Nel 1968 aveva prodotto In A Mellow Mood dei Temptations).

The Medal risulta essere stata composta da Ruth Copeland e Donald Charles Baldwin (1953) un musicista, arrangiatore e compositore americano che tra il 1970 e il 1980 aveva strettamente collaborato con la Motown Reords e aveva lavorato con i nomi più importanti della scena funk e soul del periodo come i Commodores e i Temptations.

I Am What I Am come il precedente Self Portrait si avvalse dei contributi forniti da George Clinton e da alcuni membri dei Funkadelic oltre alla partecipazione di musicisti della... (continua)

Mommy and Daddy (Alternate Version)

Mommy and Daddy (Alternate Version)
(1969)

A Monkees song written by Micky Dolenz in 1969.
This song’s lyrics had to be changed or the song would have been deemed explicit and banned from radios.

The last verse is in reference to the Vietnam War, which was ongoing at the time the song was written. The song was written in protest of the war, asking if people would care if they knew the people who died, and putting into question the morality of the people who allowed these killings to occur.
Ask your mommy and daddy, “What happened to the Indian?”

Hitler Ain't Dead

Hitler Ain't Dead
Peggy Seeger: Hitler Ain't Dead - 1967

Il existe une version de cette chanson adaptée par Peggy Seeger, vraisemblablement en 1967, année de la publication sonore de l'original. Avec cinq strophes au lieu de six dans l'original, la version de Peggy Seeger est non seulement plus concise, mais sans doute plus subtile aussi. Elle propose en effet de dépasser la simple dénonciation des agissements de Lyndon Johnson et de l'armée U.S. au Vietnam, pour étendre la responsabilité à la société dans son ensemble et s'adresser directement à l'auditeur, en l'inviter à l'action, à la résistance, à la lutte pour la liberté, rappelant en toute fin - "Hitler ain't dead, he's among you and me" - que le succès des dictateurs repose sur la complicité d'un corps social composé d'individus comme "toi et moi".

Il semble que ce soit cette version qui se trouve sur le double album "Canción protesta" édité à Cuba... (continua)

Hey, Hey, LBJ

Hey, Hey, LBJ
Thank you so much! As of today we hear chants like 'Hey hey, Joe Biden what you say, how many kids did you kill today' and with Netanyahu's name of course. But little did I know these stemmed from chants from the early seventies when they were sung to protest Lyndon B. Johnson's or the US war against the Vietnamese people. History repeats!

The Ballad of Jerry Norman Duffy

The Ballad of Jerry Norman Duffy
I was there on the night Jerry died not on hill 131 but on Ba Hoa mountain Quinhon with my searchlight. We got a call for a mission to provide light for hill 131 but the light was non functional and there was nothing we could do to help. Three weeks before we had placed motion sensor in the gully leading to the top of the hill. This was to give them early warning to movement in that area because that was the most likely place the enemy could approach from. Their was an equipment malfunction and needed another mission to complete our work, but that never was approved in time. Jerry died and other were injured as a result. It was hard to listen to the panic coming over the radio that night and not being able to help. I didn’t know Jerry’s fate till I got home and read it in Life magazine.

Just My Soul Responding
1973

The song, which appeared on his first solo album Smokey in 1973 after his departure from the Miracles, has the bonus of a birthday greeting in the intro without being twee or frivolous. This is a rare protest song, with racism, black rights and the pain of native American history at its heart.
