If I Had A Rocket Launcher/ Nicaragua

Now here's a single that Dave Marsh should have squeezed onto his 1001 list somewhere... it's an astonishing, angry outburst, in an atypical, drum-thumping musical style, from a man fed up with the incessent, power-driven violence in the world. One of the most effective anti-war songs of the 1980's, in my book, and musically so great I've got to put a snippet of it in the jukebox so I can hear it more often. Note: This copy's audio has a number of "pops" near the beginning of the track.
