 Hanoi Jane Fonda: Yesterday's Fiery Communist Revolutionary
Fonda's involvement with the Vietnam War began in 1967, after several visits with French Communists and underground revolutionaries in this country convinced her America was the bastard nation of the world.

I've heard that twee-pop fans often find Fonda too forceful for their tastes, and that's fine with me. There's something thoroughly comforting in the knowledge that Fonda aren't a bunch of greasy-haired kids in too-tight ringer t-shirts and polyester pants.
Since I was initially drawn to Fonda by their more robust, psychedelic-leaning, farfisa-assisted, electric-guitar-intensive songs, I'm sure I'm not alone in hoping that they don't abandon that aspect of their music.
