Annotation — Pete Seeger Songs
The song "Uncle Ho", also on the 1971 album Rainbow Race (Columbia # C 30739) - the title referenced the North Vietnamese leader Hồ Chí Minh - which presented the North Vietnamese side, and their fight for independence. It called on Americans to protest the war and refuse to fight: "if soldier boys in every land say 'hell no, we won't go'".
