It reached position 14 on the national pop/rock charts in 1970 and concerned the 4 students/war protesters who were killed by the National Guard at Kent State University. Amazingly the song was written, recorded and released as a single just 7 days after the incident it concerns.<br /><br />ChuckChuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13956539217339532507noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5730391.post-68292892272164569452011-09-21T06:26:13.486-07:002011-09-21T06:26:13.486-07:00The Wednesday puzzle is up.
