Thank the Nurse
Country Joe McDonald

From the liner notes:

"In 1981 while attending a conference on Post Vietnam War problems of Vietnam Veterans Lynda Van Devanter, Vietnam War Nurse and author of Home Before Morning, The Story of an Army Nurse in Vietnam, accused the audience of 'ignoring women in the military.' I felt I was certainly guilty of that in spite of the fact that I was ex-military myself. I promised Lynda I would write a song for her. I did, it was 'The Girl Next Door.' I began to research nursing and started with the life of the English woman credited with inventing 'professional nursing' as we know it today, back in the Crimean War, 1854-1856: Florence Nightingale.
I wanted to write a Florence Nightingale song but it was years to come. As a break from reading about the Crimean War, Florence Nightingale and the Vietnam War I took to reading a book about the famous American woman who was a Civil War Nurse and the person credited with starting the American Red Cross. This turned into the song 'Clara Barton.' Then one day lo and behold out of blue came my Florence Nightingale song 'The Lady with the Lamp.'
I now had three 'war nurse songs.' I realized that I was in a rut. I felt bad that my brother was a nurse practitioner and my wife a Labor and Delivery nurse but I had no non-military nurse song. I was struck with the fact that nurses are seldom given thanks for the work that they do. Nursing is often just taken for granted. So after much thought and effort out came 'Thank the Nurse.' 'Thank the Nurse' has been very well received and has opened some very interesting doors for me in the nursing world.
I have always wanted to advocate for people who seemed to be 'taken for granted' and seemed to have no voice of their own in the public. So it has been a very interesting and rewarding experience these last 20 years studying about nursing and working on my Florence Nightingale web site. Over the years I have sung my songs and talked about Florence Nightingale at various Nursing events and slowly requests have built up for me to make up a CD of the 'Nursing Songs.'"

"The Vietnam Experience"
Directed by Daniel Keller and Country Joe McDonald

This DVD video uses the songs from the Country Joe CD Vietnam Experience synched to documentary footage of the Vietnam Era. The footage is all kinds: black and white, color, video, 16 mm, and larger. Songs included:

1. I Feel Like I'm Fixing To Die Rag 2. Foreign Policy Blues 3. Agent Orange Song 4. The Girl Next Door (Combat Nurse) 5. Kiss My Ass 6. Secret Agent 7. Vietnam Veteran Still Alive 8. Vietnam Never Again 9. Mourning Blues 10. Welcome Home

Country Joe vocal and guitar, David Hayes bass and vocal, Barry Flast keyboards and vocal, Peter Walsh guitar, Mike Herbick drums and others.

The video was intended as an educational device and for that reason there is no Hollywood footage. Starting with recruitment footage the film moves through agent Orange spraying, booby traps, napalm drops, the Chicago Convention Riots, veterans' protests after the war, and welcome home parades. Film critic Judy Stone called it the "best of all the Vietnam War films."
