Probably bought for the cover and a little familiarity with the title track. Produced by Lou Adler on his own Dunhill Records which had bigger hits with the Mama and Papas and Carole King. We are firmly in &#8216;New Dylan&#8217; territory and it not surprising that fellow folkie P.F.Sloan provides a couple of tracks alongside Dylan himself. The Dylan covers are polite and pleasant. The production pure Terry Melcher or CBS studio A Johnston . The stand out is this the title track. A cold war track of unending relevance even now sadly. Maguire found religion and became a major artist on The God and Jesus circuit long before Dylan found himself ironically. Overall a novelty record but worth it for a couple of nice tracks. I once had the P.F.Sloan greatest hits which overall a better album. I believe P.F.Sloan made a comeback recently just before he passed away in November 2015. Here&#8217;s the track..enjoy.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Barry McGuire - Eve Of Destruction\" width=\"739\" height=\"416\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/qfZVu0alU0I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>For more on Maguire see\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.barrymcguire.com\/\">http:\/\/www.barrymcguire.com\/<\/a>\u00a0he a little less hair now&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/trailerstar.co.uk\/squirrel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/sloan.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-211\" src=\"https:\/\/trailerstar.co.uk\/squirrel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/sloan.jpg\" alt=\"sloan\" width=\"400\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/trailerstar.co.uk\/squirrel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/sloan.jpg 400w, https:\/\/trailerstar.co.uk\/squirrel\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/sloan-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 400px) 100vw, 400px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>P.F.Sloan OBIT:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/news\/p-f-sloan-eve-of-destruction-songwriter-dead-at-70-20151116\">http:\/\/www.rollingstone.com\/music\/news\/p-f-sloan-eve-of-destruction-songwriter-dead-at-70-20151116<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Do not know where or when I picked this up.
