"Four Dead In Ohio..."

Today in rock history, four students were shot and killed by the National Guard at Kent State University in Ohio during an antiwar demonstration in 1970. Neil Young reacted to the senseless slayings by writing and recording the song, “Ohio,” with Crosby, Stills & Nash, the very next day. “Four dead in Ohio...,” David Crosby apparently wept, as the recording of the song faded out. It was a tragic time; I was a freshman in college at the time and remember seeing many grim faces among my friends (after all, it could have been any one of us) as we vowed to "Kill the pigs!" We didn't, of course; youth needs to have an outlet whenever a wrong has been committed, even if it's tough talk and no action. Here CSN&Y performing the song in 1974, and you can still feel the anger, the hurt and the betrayal in their performance...Thanks to www.garylessard.com for the info and say a prayer for the fallen...
