Ian's Site - Ian's Advent Calendar... Door 8

Allow me to direct you to Ian's site, to hear one of the best anti-war songs of a past holiday season, Jona Lewie's "Stop the Calvary" from 1980.

It is worth it IMHO.

    I never knew that about this song - which I have heard before obviously, although I never thought of it as an anti-war song, but more a Tesco superstore seasonal song to flog us mince pies and crackers to....I'll take it more seriously now, thanks for the info Ian and Doug :-)

    You're welcome... possibly the best Christmas anti-war song... or at least the second best... and I don't mean to Paul McCartney's Pipes of Peace! ;-)

    It was brand new for me, AA, so I had the advantage of no consumer tie-ins. :-)

    Nothing better in fairly recent music comes to mind for me, Ian.
