Get on the peace train

LISTEN TO PODCAST NOW

This week saw the International Day of United Nations Peacekeepers, so our show of course features tracks from the 1970s all about peace and love and an end to fighting. As we discover, songs about peace seem to fall mostly in the early part of the decade as artists continue to respond to the civil rights movement of the 1960s and the Vietnam war (the USA pulled out in 1973). Many of the songs featured on the show have become classics, continuing to remind us that when we have a course of action to choose, we should be guided always by peace and love. Right on.
