 OMIT THE "NAME GAME" AND YOU HAVE A GOOD CD September 18, 2000
3 out of 7 found this review helpful
On 2/12/2000, I had the pleasure of hearing Barry McGuire sing his 1965 social classic, "Eve of Destruction" with John Michael Talbot. That is a very powerful song with a very relevant message.
Ever since I was a very little child, I have had a strong, constitutional aversion for "the Name Game." As a child, I would run from the room or turn off the radio. I said at 3, "That's not a song. It's stupid and bad because those aren't REAL words. I'm glad MY name's not in it." I hate the "Name Game" as much today as I did then. It is intolerable, idiotic, highly annoying and has nothing in creation to recommend it. The "Name Game" has cost this otherwise good collection 2 stars.

You should know all of these songs by heart, and they're all classics of 1965 pop. The elusive "Eve of Destruction" alone is worth the price.
