La Ballata del milite ignoto
I Gufi furono gli interpreti più noti di questo brano, che in realtà fu scritto da uno di loro (Lino Patruno) insieme a Walter Valdi.
La tradizione del “milite ignoto”, o “soldat inconnu”, nacque in Francia, ma fu ripresa immediatamente in altri paesi tra i quali l'Italia. Tra i caduti della I guerra mondiale che erano rimasti senza un nome, ne fu scelto uno che fu trasportato solennemente per tutto il Paese e poi tumulato nell'Altare della Patria” a Roma.
da "Non spingete scappiamo anche noi" (1969)

MASTERS OF WAR IN CASERMA - di Sandro
da Maggie's Farm - Sito Italiano su Bob Dylan
Per la serie "When we first met", non vi voglio raccontare il mio primo incontro con Bob, bensì la storia di come ho fatto conoscere Bob a uno sconosciuto.
Correva l’anno 1993 e il sottoscritto era alle prese con quella esperienza che riguardava noi maschietti e che ora per fortuna dei nuovi pargoli è diventata facoltativa: il servizio militare. Chi fra voi ha avuto la sventura di incappare nelle grinfie dell’esercito sa benissimo che ci si deve inventare di tutto per far passare il tempo; e allora che cosa di meglio se non un po’ di CD e qualche libro? Va da sé che un dylaniano come il sottoscritto si era riempito l’armadietto di ogni cimelio del buon Bob. Fra questi un libro, del quale non ricordo il titolo e nemmeno l’autore, con una raccolta selezionata di testi e poesie di Dylan con traduzione a fronte.... (Continues)

Crystal Blue Persuasion
[1969]
Testo di Tommy James, Ed Gray e Mike Vale
"This hit song from 1969 was written and performed by Tommy James and The Shondells.
According to Tommy James himself, "when I wrote Crystal Blue, it was taken from the book of Revelation: the imagery of the new Jerusalem." But I prefer to think that the "blue crystal" is really the planet Earth. This song was a big hit in 1969, the year man landed on the moon, and television viewers saw a beautiful blue round crystal sphere photographed from space.
But if we want to consider further what "blue crystal" really has the power to persuade us to have world peace, consider the Silicon Solar Cell.
As BluCrystl says: "The silicon solar cell is a true crystal, blue in color, no pollution, no environmental danger, sufficient power ( I wonder how mankind survived before the use of fossil fuel energy, coal , oil, etc.) and I cannot see one country going to war over another's silicon solar cell photovoltaic panels."
