When I first saw Pink Floyd the Vietnam War was still going on. Lots of protests going on in those days. But PF played and sang their music and Roger didn’t lecture anyone then. Saw them a few years later and the focus was still on the music.
Once Waters left PF and became a has-been then he somehow moved his identity from being music-focused to leftist-focused. It’s a shame.

The band Chicago, back then was very political. The insert for Chicago III, showed all the band members at a military cemetary wearing military uniforms. And a lot of their early songs were directed against the war and Nixon in particular (A Song For Richard And His Friends)
