Blog #25 Music and Art in the Cold War

Hi again cadets. Since we are ending our Semester studing the Cold War, Korean and Vietnam conflict we are going to do something different this time.  Your task this week is to find music or art that created during periods of conflict and to post that information onto our site. You must post a video, image and URL about your piece.  Hopefully this will open your eyes to different issues or items that were an outcome of these conflicts that did not always depict horror or tragedy.  Lastly, remember to post comments on your peer's work and I hope that you have a great time with this blog. Here is my posting that features Spike Jones, a musician from the 30's to the 60's that was an inspiration to Weird Al Yankovic.
