Annotation
The track "The War Is Over (My Brother)" (Bos Records # B-024) by the Sensational Saints, an Ohio, Cleveland soul / gospel group, is sung from the perspective of a soldier's brother. He recalled a conversation between the soldier, "calling from Vietnam", and his family. The song featured several religious references. The group released another version of this in 1971, called "Brother".
