obscure Musical Lyric for the week of January 26/09

Happy Monday everyone. I like Mondays, as opposed to the song that went  "I don't like Mondays". I enjoy them mostly. I hate wishing my life away. I've come to the point in my life that I realize that I have passed the half way mark in the race and I really don't want the finish line to come any quicker than it is. So, I try to take each moment captive and enjoy something about it.

This is the last song that deals with peace and the loss of peace. Peace means many things to all of us. It means more than "the absence of war" and it means more than just "peace of mind". I trist that each of us will find and retain that peace that we all crave.

Here are the lyrics from a song written by one person and recorded by four brilliant musicians. the song was recorded in 1970 and released as a live double LP recording in 1971. It was shipped as a gold record. The disagreements between the members of this group were referenced by Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention in their album "Filmore East - June 1971".

Daylight again, following me to bed

I think about a hundred years ago, how my fathers bled

I think I see a valley, covered in bones in blue

all the brave soldiers that cannot get older been askin after you 

I would like to know the following:

The writer:

The four members of the group:

The name of the song:

The name of the album:

Have a great week, I'll see you upon my return.
