It is over.

That was a lovely collection of tunes that reminded us that war may be hell but at least we've got plenty of nice songs out of it. happy

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

I thought it a bit of a fuzzy collection of tunes.

Gimme Shelter is obviously one of the greatest songs ever written and then subsequently done, but, for me, its credentials as a genuine war song are a bit, well, fuzzy around the edges.

Instead it's a kind of 'storm's coming up, Ani' jagged slice of zeitgeist-y anarchy set against a backdrop of civil unrest (that the Stones, a Mars bar apart, weren't ever all that engaged with or in).

What were the other ones?

Country Joe?

Yes, that was appropriate and worked.

Dire Straits?

Is it about The Tribbles?

If so, well...

Live long and prosper is what I always say...
