A socially conscious folk masterpiece from a leader in protest songs
A single that reflects the turmoil of 1960s America.
"From a Distance" looks at the world from a calm perspective, while "Eve of Destruction" directly addresses social issues of the time, such as the Vietnam War and racial issues. Sloan's songwriting ability and Barry McGuire's brilliant vocals make this a monumental work that made the world aware of the importance of the protest song genre.
