A compilation of artists signed to Royal American (# RAS 10060), taking its title from the John Deer song above - a case of the record label taking advantage of a popular issue and positive sales, to promote their other artists. The compilation also included the Vietnam-related track "Dear Mr. President" by Leroy Woods (unrelated to the My Lai issue).
