For What It's Worth - Buffalo Springfield
Sam Stone - John Prine
Worth His Weight in Gold - Steel Pulse

Since we're up to our elbows in political shite, what does the board think?

While right wing country songs and left wing rock songs are pretty common, I know of few right wing rock songs. Two of my favorites are these folk-rockers from the mid '60s:

The Spokesmen - "Dawn of Correction" Answer song to -- or if you prefer, ripoff of -- Barry McGuire's #1 hit "Eve Of Destruction", this made the top 40 in the summer of 1965

Such nice, clean-cut boys. Not at all like those longhaired agitators:



--------

The Charades - "Hammers And Sickles (Make Very Poor Toys)"

Pretty much everything sung by The Wakes or Pol Mac Adaim, even if I happen to disagree with the politics that the song pushes.
