I rember seeing an album on the records racks back in 1969 or 1970 that produced
a very strong reaction in me.  I was appaled by the title and the cover.
The album was titled "America Eats Its Young" and the cover had a drawing
of the Statue of Liberty eating children.  The record was probably some
sort of protest or anti-war album, but I don't really know.  The title and
the art work grossed me out so much at the time that I could never buy it
in spite of my curiosity.  No, I don't know who put the album out and I don't
really know what kind of music it contained.  But this thing has stuck in my
mind all these years.  With all the discussion here concerning album titles
and gross song titles/lyrics I couldn't help but think about this one.
Is there anyone out there who might possibly know what album I'm talking
about?  I'm really curious again.  Who did it and was the music any good?
This record must not have been very popular because I have never met anyone
who owned it or had heard of it.  And to my knowlege I have never heard any
songs off of it.  But back in 69/70 this thing seemed to be every where (in
all the stores).  I hope someone can fill me in.
