About the artist
Unknown - no birth or death details could be established for this artist. "War Isn't Over" was issued on Sky Records in 1981 backed with 'Straight Sailor'; Discogs gives no catalogue number, writer or producer credits for the single. Discogs attributes the record to the John Coster who is a member of Jacob's Reunion and whose artist profile links to a site giving his base as Northampton, Massachusetts, which is consistent with the documented New England multi-instrumentalist of that name, but the identification has not been independently confirmed.
