Stevie Ray Vaughan Crossfire Live From Austin Texas 1080P

Hendrix has nothing to do with it, though, except maybe as an inspiration for Stevie to practice.
Well I learnt one thing; I didn't know he was dead.

Ain't Hurtin' Nobody
-John Prine


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEjURjd5Bkw

I'm a walkin' down the street like Lucky Larue
Got my hand in my pocket thinkin' 'bout you
I ain't hurtin' nobody
I ain't hurtin' no one

There's three hundred men in the state of Tennessee
They're waiting to die, they won't never be free
I ain't hurtin' nobody
I ain't hurtin' no one

Six million seven hundred thousand and thirty-three lights on
You think someone could take the time to sit down
And listen to the words of my song

At the beach in Indiana I was nine years old
Heard Little Richard singin "Tutti Frutti"
From the top of a telephone pole
I wasn't hurtin' nobody
I wasn't hurtin' no one

There's roosters laying chickens and chickens layin' eggs
Farm machinery eatin people's arms and legs
I ain't hurtin' nobody
I ain't hurtin' no one

Perfectly crafted popular hit songs never use the wrong rhyme
You'd think that waitress could get my order
Right the first time

She's sittin on the back steps just shuckin that corn
That gal's been grinnin since the day she was born
She ain't hurtin' nobody
She ain't hurtin' no one

I used to live in Chicago where the cold wind blows
I delivered more junk mail than the junkyard would hold
I wasn't hurtin' nobody
I wasn't hurtin' no one

You can fool some of the people part of the time
In a rock and roll song
Fifty million Elvis Presley fans
Can't be all wrong

Anyone never hear this spoken rhythm?

Alice's Restaurant - Original 1967 Recording

Since warfare has changed drastically in the past fifty years, has anti-war consciousness also changed from what it was?

Steppenwolf - The Pusher

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3XqyGoE2Q4Y

Interesting. Given the two tunes from the past, in this American presidential election, littering (environmentalism) is a graver issue than the epidemic of drugs.

Imagine Steppenwolf composing a tune about about anti-littering?
