“One Tin Soldier” (The Original Caste - 1970) #34 2/14/1970

The only US hit for the Calgary, Alberta group Original Caste. This one is a little preachy, but sends the message that peace wins out in the end. It was used the following year in the first “Billy Jack” movie (talk about preachy!) and did a tad better for the band Coven. The soundtrack version was credited to Coven, but was just their lead singer Jinx Dawson with session musicians.
