Cool song-list, as usual, Algae… lot of good old favorites in it. I particularly love the video of the ‘dancing troll’ on ‘Love Grows (Where My Rosemary Goes)’… 🙂

“Smiley”, a favourite memory, wriiten by Johnny Young about Normie Rowe who was off to the “The Asian War”. Remember how mad we were at that war? “Where is Love” indeed!

As it was for me, one of my favourites of the period. About the time that I was aware of the Asian war and the implications it had for many around me. A great protest song.

The War song was about the same war I think.
