Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young - The Cost of Freedom video

Written before their famous song "Ohio", but considered the most appropriate song to add to the flip-side of "Ohio" when that single came out on 45-rpm. A haunting ballad that could actually be applied to those who lost their lives at Kent State as well as all those who died in the Vietnam War. The saddest part is that many of those on both sides were the same age from the same generation. I think the most appropriate quote that came out of all that era was, "America eats its young!" "The Cost of Freedom" and "Ohio" will always remain as anthems for that generation and time.
