this was it most of our boys were getting drafted in armed forces in those days even the ones that sang in groups like the elgins go for broke . that was america and it ain't coming back
It still makes me smile when, after 50 years of hearing these great sounds, I can still hear one I've never heard before...Keep 'um coming....Keep me smiling... 8-)
i believe you are mister O.G.? a complement coming from you is high on my list. man you also some bad rollas. this group here was a la doo wop group they recorded on flip and also on lummtone later recorded as the bagdads remember "bring back those doo wops" on double shot records. i have some more tunes from them i will be uploading soon thanks again.

@lenaruben LA group sound was so clean and busy, with plenty of high end and floating tenor leads, e.g Rochelle & the Candles, Hollywood Saxons, The Shields, et. al. Lots of meaning woven into this song, relevant to those poor men and women who are sent off to fight wars under the guise of spreading freedom and democracy, having their lives thrown away to advance the interests of economic and ruling powers that be. Beauty and genuine feeling never grow outdated. This music makes life richer.
