Battleground Korea
Songs and sounds of America's forgotten war
Album
Deze boxset neemt je mee terug naar het internationaal beslechte conflict tussen Noord- en Zuid-Korea in de vroege jaren 50, met een rijk geïllustreerd boek en vier cd's. Naast nieuwsbulletins en andere audio-documentatie, bieden deze veel unieke muziek van Amerikaanse artiesten – van John Lee Hooker tot B.B. King en Fats Domino – die de jongens overzee een hart onder de riem steken. (MR)
