@[Badbiker:30341] "spitting on them and calling them baby killers" is basically a line from a Rambo movie. There are no documented cases of any returning Vietnam vets who were spit on. In fact, the first reference to the spitting was in that 1982 movie. |

@[jimmyjammy:29734] There's nothing idealistic about Wooden Ships, its not about choice, its a sci-fi fantasy about surviving in an unavoidable situation. |

Almost. David Crosby said that he was having a conversation with JB, talking about getting away, perhaps buying an island where he and friends could live. JB responded by asking about the people who weren't part of his plan, what about everyone else in the counterculture? He later wrote For Everyman and David's head was set straight, he realized anew what a wonderful person JB was and that his elitist plans were anathema to the spirit of the counterculture. So, it wasn't after hearing Wooden Ships that the song was written, it was after having the conversation with Croz. |
