Someone requested minutemen. Here's one. I'm in the process of writing down some others I know. For anyone not familiar with minutemen, they were comtemporaries of Husker Du, Meat Puppets, Black Flag, etc, on the SST label in the early to mid '80s. Guitar player D. Boon died in a car crash in '85. The two rmaining members reformed with a new guitarist as fIRHOSE. In light of D. Boon's death, this song is very sad. @Song: History Lesson Part 2 Written by Mike Watt Recorded by Minutemen on album "Double Nickles on the Dime" (SST) File format: tab Transcription: Gary Von Colln
