Tonight’s mystery artist wrote a song about the Nixon administration and Vietnam protests. Think you know who he is or the song??

I knew of the song before but it was in a Rolling Stone article with Joe Walsh called ‘My life in 15 Songs’ that the story behind its inception came to light. In it Joe says during that time in his life he felt the government had stopped working for the people. The song he wrote about Nixon and the state of the Union was “Turn To Stone”. He also said in the interview that he felt people had lost interest in participating because of the government’s attitude and that was why in 1980 he ran for president to bring focus to the need for people to get out and vote.

And here he is with our featured song.
