Label: Cantaloupe Music
Sku #: CA21019
A deeply moving, intense look at poetry American GIs inscribed on their lighters in Vietnam. Kline has set these profound and desperate poems with a calm and sacred spaciousness. They echo through the listener as if the soldiers themselves were singing to us from the afterlife. Coupled with Rumsfeld Songs, Zippo Songs is Kline's statement on war and the politics of war, in a fresh and new take on the age old tradition of the protest song. Best of 2003 "Phil Kline scores an experimental winner." - K. Leander Williams, Time Out NY.
