Here's where I can use your help: What groups are writing / recording / performing new songs that deal with some aspect of our "New New World Order?" The musicians' response can be positive or negative, makes no difference. I am just interested in getting a feel for how the music world is responding to the events of our young twenty-first century.
Here's what I am thinking about so far:
Bruce Springsteen's album "The Rising"
Neil Young's song "Let's Roll"
Steve Earle's album "Jerusalem" (especially the song "Johnny Walker's Blues" about Johnny Walker Lindh)
Paul McCartney's album
What else have you guys heard lately on this subject? Are any of you guys writing songs along these lines? Please include audio links if they exist.
Many of you may know that I am into Dylan, the Dead, "classic" rock and roll, and folk-singer-songwriter kind of stuff, but I will consider music from all genres, and from all over the world.
Thanks guys, this might be fun! :)
