The radio was always on in my house when I was little, and this was the kind of stuff my parents liked to listen to (they grew up on it :) ) As a consequence, it's also the music *I* grew up on (I'm 24). Great stuff. I got some strange looks in school once in a while, though :p

That is what the BF: Vietnam soundtrack should have contained IMO :)

Sweet! The full version of American Woman w/ the acoustic intro is on here :) Any time they play it on the radio, they jump straight to the song itself.

1. Mr. Bojangles should be on there. Same with Locomotive Breath, or is that one not old enough? I saw another Jethro Tull song on there.

2. Teenage Wasteland is NOT a song. It's Baba O'Reilly.

Yeah, I saw several mistakes on there as well.

But what can you expect.
The guys who put that site together are more than likely older than ME, and that's FVCKING OLD! :Q

I'm surprised they can remember to get UP in the morning. ;)

Also I saw many songs that were written LONG after the war was over.

Still good stuff though!

BFV did have a pretty good soundtrack tho. I loved loading up a huey and blasting "Ride of the Valkyries" :)
 

WTF? Where's the Country Joe McDonald's "Fixin' to Die Rag?"

That's an essential part of any Vietnam-era music collection.
