Harry HartmannGraham Nash – Chicago

Some of the lyrics refer to the „Chicago 7“ trial, where protesters at the convention were charged with intent to incite a riot. The first line of the song refers to Bobby Seale, the only black plaintiff and the eighth member, who was actually gagged and bound to a chair in the courtroom. He was later removed from the trial, leaving 7. The 3 most famous names from this trial are Tom Hayden, Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin.

Schönes Lied. Schöner Fund. Klarer Fall. Ja! Danke, Harry!

Die CSN&Y-Aufnahme auf „Four Way Street“ ist einer meiner Favoriten.
