[Alas Babylon!]

Sounds great! I have your book on American History (great, by the way! - A Patriot's History of the United States). Can't wait to buy this movie!

[cripplecreek]

Wow, you’ve been busy.

One of my favorites was a little late to the scene but The Scorpions had a great song about the collapse of the iron curtain called “Wind of Change”

>>The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say<<

[Grandma Pam]

Way to go!

[MozarkDawg]

Oh, very cool!

plus "witnesses" who lived under Soviet and European communism who discuss the power of music to keep their hopes alive and to subvert the system.

That's going to be very interesting to hear -- all the best to you with this one, LS.

Rock ripped the wall? Bullshite.

[stephenjohnbanker]

I hope it’s a hit!

” Rock ripped the wall? Bullshite.”

Ah! Sunday morning cheer from the veritable cesspool of verbiage....

Go suck an egg.

[cripplecreek]

Rock focused a lot of attention on the iron curtain from people who really held no political views. I held no real political views at the time but was very aware of the iron curtain and the oppresion it held.

Wish I could be there!

[LS]

Thanks. I saw some raw cuts a month ago, but my exec producer says it is so powerful it brings you to tears. The final scenes are terrific.

Always like how people dismiss things before they’ve ever read them or seen them.

[LS]

Kristinn, can you circulate this in all your groups?

[cripplecreek]

I’ll be sure to get it out to the Glenn Beck TV threads.

[Tijeras_Slim]

There’s certainly a case to be made. Looking forward to this.

[kristinn]

Sure.

[TalBlack]

“And away we go!” Good luck!!

I've read extensively on the matter, as well as being fortunate to be living during the period. You can exaggerate all you wish but the fact is that three-chord repetition-leather pants wearing-rockers played (excuse the pun) no significant factor in the wall's collapse.
Thoughg I'm sure that you'll go on G. Beck's show and assert this, ignoring the actual reasons.
