Subject: RE: Review: About the Chad Mitchell Trio's satires
Glad you showed up, Joe.

A song I learned from either you or your records at the time was "Business Goes On As Usual." Likely the hardest-hitting anti-war song I've ever heard. And you guys were reaching people who went to see three clean-cut guys and they got people who were providing anti-war songs, songs that ridiculed 'things' like the JB Society, the Klan, racism. The CMT was important because it attracted the then 'middle class' and I think as a result added to the activities and memberships of the various 'movements'. Indeed, it was an important group in many ways. I add my thanks to those who have posted above.
