"The Great Airplane Strike" #20 10/29/1966

Topical songs usually don't hold up all that well. This one is about a 1966 strike against most of the major US airlines, and the resulting travails Paul Revere and the Raiders encountered in trying to make it to their shows. Strike or no strike, air travel is just as difficult today, if not more so. In other words, it can really suck.

One has to love the flippancy and sardonic tone of this one.
The airlines deserved it---and still do.
