Comment:

OK, so I have an unhealthy fascination with nuclear war. Anyway, songs of our impending fiery nuclear doom with a couple of songs about nuclear power anxiety, to get you in the mood to watch 'The Day After' again, or perhaps dust Moscow.

Very, very interesting. I like this - especially the Heron track. Have a look at my mix, "So long Mom, I'm off to drop the bomb". I took a different approach to this very important subject. Thanks for doing this.

Yep, cool idea. Johnny Thunders does an awesome version of "Eve of Destruction" (which Mr. Lally knows all about), and "Nuclear War" would fit well also (either Sun Ra or YLT). Any way you look at it, it is indeed a motherfucker, don't you know? Right. So, nice mix.
