"ITS JUST A NAM THING"
I came upon a "NO BULLSHIT" web page, and soon discovered it also had a CD for sale called, "ITS JUST A NAM THING". i'LL admit I was skeptical about how good a CD could an Ole Grunt put out. Well, I let the man know how I felt, and I got one of his CD's...I listened to the CD, then I started it over and read and sang along with it...the words are included. The voice, the words and the meaning took me back to the brothers I miss, had me walking the streets looking for a Vet, and had me proud to be a United States Marine once upon a time....defending our great country....and I hadn't even left the room...If you haven't got one, go get one, you'll be glad you did.....

Dane,
I just finished listening to the CD, "Its Just a Nam Thing", and all I can say is WOW !! It leaves me almost speechless !!!............It was really overwhelming, the lyrics alone are so moving, but in conjunction with the music, the songs become so powerful, filled with a mixture of rhythms that all generations can relate to them. All the songs were deep from within one's soul, explicit of one's own dreary stint in the war.... I was overcome with emotions when i heard the very first song, " Just an Old Viet Vet"...The closing chorus telling of the Old Man being a decorated War Hero & yet all forgotten. It's all too familiar with so many of our own War Hero's that it consumes you with anger & sadness all at the same time. The songs really hit the truth of the matter of so many forgotten & troubled Veterans. Hopefully this CD will have more of a bearing for all who hears it, than just some kind of closure for a Vietnam Vet or Veteran of any war. All of you did a GREAT JOB recording them.

I recently received my copy of the "Its Just a Nam Thing" CD and haven't been able to take it off of my player. I am a great fan of SEA music, have a collection of songs by the great singer/songwriters, Dick Jones, "Bull" Durham, etc. In my opinion " Its Just a Nam Thing" rates right up there with the best that I've heard. I recommend it to warriors of all services. If you've been there, done that, there is something for you here

I am awe struck at the range of emotions that the songs covered with the different type of song styles you used...Rock and Roll, Sixties type music, and the last song M-Day3 just brought me to my knees. I really liked "The Corps", "Its Just a Nam Thing", "The Boys From 1/27" .....The background sounds were AWESOME !

Dane,
I received your CD about 2 weeks ago. The first think I did was go for a ride down the river with it blasting on my cd player in my truck..I listened to it over and over and agree with your description of " it's a must have, for every Viet Vet"....I was 11bravo40 Army Infantry Central Highlands, 1st of the 14th Infantry 4th Division SSgt platoon leader in 69..I have a good bro "Keith Kruse", Marine 0311 68'..who lives in Prescott Arizona. I sent him the CD just knowing how much it would mean to him also...He has a friend at the Vet Center in Prescott where they are playing it now...I just ordered two more. One to replace mine, and one to replace his.. Keep up the good work bro..I have a large website and will help you promote this wonderful salute to all us Vets....many like Keith and I...100 Percent permanent/Total. Love Ya Bro....
HEY, I DON'T MUCH GIVE A GOOD RAT'S ASS IF YOU BUY THIS CD OR NOT......BUT THE LEAST YOU CAN DO IS VISIT OUR WEBSITE AND PAY TRIBUTE TO THE MEN AND WOMEN OF THIS COUNTRY THAT HAVE PROVIDED YER SORRY ASS WITH YOUR FREEDOM !!!!!!

author: Tom SmallridgeIf you were in Nam, this CD will sure bring it back home to you. If you weren't in Nam, it'll probably give you an insight into how many of us feel. If you're a liberal draft dodging piece of shit, you can use it to re-bushing your asshole.
