I tend to agree with the poster who thought of this one as Dylan-esque. But don't forget that he went more rock later on in his "Like a Rolling Stone" stage. As a folk musician who crossed over into the mainstream he took it much farther than did the likes of the Kingston Trio and Peter, Paul and Mary.

Lyrically piece could perhaps be at least somewhat compared to Dylan's "Masters of War" albiet not nearly as angry. In many ways I believe conditions could be right for a new era of protest songs ala the 1960's, and we have so many problems that weren't even evident during that earlier time. For example, few people at that time saw their jobs moved overseas. Good luck with this one.

Peace,
