My Son

My Son
[1968]
Lyrics & music by Jan Howard
Album: Jan Howard [1969]

"My Son" is a song written and recorded by American country music singer Jan Howard. It is among several songs recorded by country artists during this period that related to the Vietnam War. The song is based on a letter Howard wrote to her son, Jimmy, who was drafted into the war. After writing the letter, she was inspired by family and friends to put it to music. Recording the song in a single take, it was released as a single in 1968.
Jan sent the song to her son in 1968 after its release. Before he could write back, he was killed in battle. At the same time, "My Son" became a major hit on the country charts in the United States. The recording later appeared on Howard's 1969 self-titled studio album. Since its release, "My Son" has been considered among Howard's signature songs. In later years, the song also has also...

How Do You Tell a Small Boy?

How Do You Tell a Small Boy?
(1973)
Single: Wake Up America! / How Do You Tell A Small Boy

The second song "How Do You Tell a Small Boy", narrated from the perspective of a P.O.W. (Prisoner of War), looked at the impact of a missing father on a child.

The P.O.W. wondered how to explain to his son that he "had to go to war", and that he spent most of his "time on a prison floor". The P.O.W. missed many of his son's life events: receiving his first bike, going to school, meeting his friend, playing in the snow. The father concluded that while he could not make up the time, and that his son paid the cost, he intended to stay home.

Wake Up America!

Wake Up America!
(1973)
Single: Wake Up America! / How Do You Tell A Small Boy

A double-sided Vietnam single, written and sung by Lance Lindsay. Bruce Miller arranged both sides. Released by Voices in Vital America (VIVA) - a not-for-profit student organisation formed in 1967 in Los Angeles by Carol Oates, under the name Victory in Vietnam Association, this group sought to counter campus radicalism while promoting concern for US soldiers missing in action and prisoners of war.

They famously distributed metal bracelets, with details of those M.I.A. or P.O.W., selling over 5 million. The group disbanded in 1976. Many of its records are held at the Vietnam Center and Archive, at Texas Tech.

The back of the picture sleeve said that

"over 1800 men are prisoners of war or missing in action. A picture of Lt. Ron Dodge (front cover) being escorted by North Vietnamese soldiers appeared in 'Paris March' magazine... (Continues)

Burning Alexandria Down

Burning Alexandria Down
[2018]
Lyrics & music by Bill MacKechnie
Album: Doorways

An album of music inspired by, featuring, and in tribute to, the late Anubis Spire multi-instrumentalist / vocalist / songwriter, Marlon Kempmann.
A mix of songs and performances from the band and a host of special guests including Mary Everhart, Mel Clemans, Marc McKechnie, Jerry Willard, Dace Yates, and Kathy Stewart. Songs that journey from the joy of love and friendship to sadness and pain for the loss of a great friend and fellow musician. But we must remember that when one door closes another opens, always. There is no end to the doorways…

Its track 7, Burning Alexandria Down, is a song about media manipulation and the raising tide of hate groups.
Well they don't like you

Goat Head

Goat Head
[2019]
Parole e musica di Brittany Howard, musicista e cantautrice, front woman degli Alabama Shakes
Nel suo primo disco solista, intitolato "Jaime"
Testo da Genius

Un disco autobiografico, non a caso intitolato alla sorella maggiore, morta di retinoblastoma nel 1998. Brittany stessa fu vittima della malattia, riportando una parziale cecità da un occhio.

Nella famiglia di Brittany la mamma era bianca e il babbo era nero. Ad Athens, Alabama, la cosa non passava inosservata. "Goat Head" racconta di quando qualcuno vandalizzò l'auto della famiglia, lasciando sul sedile posteriore la testa mozzata di una capra...

Verso la fine della canzone, il verso "I'm one drop of three-fifths" si riferisce a due dei fondamenti razziali degli USA. Il primo è addirittura costituzionale: i Padri Fondatori, per stabilire il numero di seggi di ciascun Stato al Congresso, decisero che gli schiavi contavano... (Continues)

Testo da Genius

Tutte le canzoni dell'album furono originariamente composte per uno spettacolo teatrale intitolato "Coal Country" ed incentrato sulla vita dei minatori del carbone in West Virginia ed, in particolare, sulla tragedia dell'Upper Big Branch Mine di Raleigh dove, il 5 aprile 2010, una trentina di minatori rimase intrappolata da un'esplosione a 300 metri di profondità. Morirono quasi tutti, 29 su 31. L'inchiesta successiva appurò che la compagnia proprietaria, la Massey Energy, aveva eluso le più elementari regole di sicurezza. L'ammontare dei risarcimenti per il disastro superò i 200 milioni di dollari.

Don Blankenship, amministratore delegato della compagnia al momento del disastro, venne condannato per gravi omissioni nella sicurezza dell'impianto. Si fece un solo anno di galera. Oggi Blankenship è in politica... (Continues)

The Blind Soldier From Vietnam

The Blind Soldier From Vietnam
The country song "The Blind Soldier From Vietnam" (Arzee # RZ-106-X) took an anti-war and plight of the soldier interpretation.

Curly Herman (1918-1968), from West Virginia, a fiddler in the 1960s, sometimes headed a group called the West Virginia Boys. He died shortly after the recording and release of this single, in 1968.

Narrated from the perspective of a soldier, who had returned home "from Vietnam", blinded by the war. His brother had also died in a war, possibly Vietnam or Korea. Likewise his father, presumably a reference to the Second World War. It thus sought to show a family continuity in fighting wars for the US. The narrator then explained that the young boy helped him cross the street. The boy told him that his friend's father had died in the Vietnam War. The soldier then declared: "dear god...stop the fighting in Vietnam and send the boys home safely". Released in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, on Rex Zario's record label Arzee (he produced the single). Composed by Curly Herdman.

Heroes of the Earth

Heroes of the Earth
[1994]
Lyrics & music by Bryan David Knight
Album: Heroes of the Earth [1995]

Latin Rock fused with Pop/Folk Rock. A clarion call for people to stand up for their lives, for freedom, for health, and most importantly of all, to protect humanity and all life upon our precious Earth.
“In the beginning, this song was conceived in conjunction with a series of songs I was writing that were all connected to Texas history. But the song soon grew into something much deeper and more philosophical - a clarion call to take action, to recognize our own innate power as Bodhisattva/Buddha, and to embrace our compassion for all humanity. Back in 1994 when I wrote this song, I wanted to inspire people to stand up for themselves - to think for themselves, to cherish their freedom and autonomy - to take action instead of waiting for someone else to come along and solve hard problems. It is up to each... (Continues)

Razza partigiana, il reading

Ricordiamo che da questo concerto – a sua volta basato sulla biografia di Giorgio Marincola scritta da Carlo Costa e Lorenzo Teodonio – è nato prima il libro con cd Basta uno sparo e poi, dopo lo spostamento del focus da Giorgio a sua sorella Isabella, il romanzo meticcio Timira.

I tre libri e lo spettacolo dal vivo sono parti di una grande narrazione transmediale sulla famiglia Marincola, le cui sparse membra sono raccolte nel sito razzapartigiana.it

La band del reading/concerto (e del cd) è un “supergruppo” composto da un membro di Wu Ming (il vocalista Wu Ming 2), due membri dei Massimo Volume (i chitarristi Egle Sommacal e Stefano Pilia) e due membri dei Settlefish (il bassista Paul Pieretto e il batterista Federico Oppi).
