Dad and Eve of Destruction

STORY BY: Gail Q
YEAR: 1965
LOCATION: Halifax, NS

Gail comes from a family of 11 kids, with a father who she thought was "an old square". One day, he went downtown and brought a copy of Barry McGuire's song "Eve of Destruction". The song moved him so much, he played it back at home for his kids. Gail says the song still resonates to this day, and her heart is now full of her father. Thanks for sharing, Gail.
