Arlo Guthrie/When A Soldier Makes It Home

This powerful song still makes me cry. Arlo performs this song with his son Abe Guthrie, keyboards, Tim Sears, guitar, Jason Webster, guitar, Sean Hurley, bass, Kali Baba McConnel, drums. Wolftrap, August 8, 1993.

The video is a live mix and the sound is taken from our CD titled,"More Together Again in Concert"
Pete Seeger & Arlo Guthrie's re-mastered double CD will be released at Carnegie Hall this year. Arlo, Pete and family will be performing together once again.

Well, Arlo, you never went to War and me neither. My brothers did. The tragedy of War is that so many young kids go overseas to fight these corporate BS, Fed-backed wars. Useless wars. It's not for protecting our country or for freedom. I'm for Ron Paul like you Arlo. Stopping sending our boys overseas. End the fed, stop stupid senseless wars, backed by fiat money.

Nobody seems to care these days "When A Soldier Makes It Home". They have a ribbon on the back of their imported SUV saying "Support the Troops" but not one saying "Support the Veterans".

I keep posting this on fb in hopes it will be listened to, and more people will take up the cause of our returning servicemen and their familes. Seems like the major mediums of communication - tv, internet, press, radio- have little or no interest any more in moving us towards better care of our servicepeople.

My best friend Jimmy Grissom was never the same after Vietnam and died of a massive heart attack three years ago age 57. I miss him still and always will. He was a casualty of that damn Vietnam War even though he died decades later.

Awesome. Am at work right now with earphones and listening to random songs. For this one, I had to stop and pay attention.

Awesome.
