Ed Zeppelin Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Iâ??ve just found this great timepiece from the Vietnam War. Itâ??s an entire show broadcast by Dave Rabbit from a whore house in Saigon in January, 1971, and as Dave Rabbit says on his website, â??These recordings contain explicit material, hard acid rock music and comments about the issues of the times which were sex, drugs and rock and roll. These shows were created for the entertainment of the troops that put their lives on the line every day in Vietnam and were part of the huge Anti-War movement which was happening within the military itself against the war in Vietnam.â? Itâ??s really interesting and the music is great. Iâ??m sure it will also be of interest to anyone who was there at the time. You can download the entire show in MP3 format at 192 KBPS here: http://radio.about.com/gi/dynamic/offsite.htm?zi=1/XJ&sdn=radio&cdn=gadgets&tm=28&f=00&su=p284.8.150.ip_&tt=2&bt=0&bts=0&zu=http%3A//www.ibiblio.org/jwsnyder/rft/rft.html Dave Rabbitâ??s still broadcasting and you can hear the original show streamed from his website: http://daverabbit.podomatic.com/entry/2007-05-08T08_47_16-07_00 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 walter mitty? Don't know what's with the colour photo in camouflage fatigues and the dippy looking beret. Combat troops didn't have camos and that's not any Special Forces beret. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flashermac Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 p.s. Yeah, I know. I'm still prejudiced against REMFs. But at least the guy went, which is more than GWB and the clowns running the country today did. Hat's off to ya, Dave. Life must have been tough as a Saigon DJ.
