Comment:

My inner history geek came out on this one. Hey, it's what I majored in in college.

My original idea for this mix was to have a song for each major war America has fought. Then I found that I needed more songs because it was too short, so I added a few anti and pro songs to the beginning and end to bookmark the others.

Interesting mix. Good Pearl Jam selection. Dylan version is good too.

I did a mix for the Vote For Change tour. You might pic up some ideas from that mix:

Very neat. Shocked (and relieved) there aren't enough wars to fill a box set.

I'm impressed! War has always provided plenty of fodder for songs.
