Annotation — Australian & New Zealand Songs
Blues group formed in 1988 in Sydney, NSW, Australia, with a revolving line-up, but led throughout by Dom Turner. Featured on this album was the song "Vietnam People", which in typical blues style, repeated each line of the lyrics, below. It paid tribute to the Vietnamese people, who for "a thousand years" have been "fighting for their rights".
