Looking for songs from the "Vietnam - era"

[Thomsen]

Hi folks!

I want to collect a few songs from the time of the Vietnam war, songs like "The Doors - This is the end" or "Rolling Stones - Painted black".

Has anybody of you some other proposals?

Thank you.

You'll need the Bink Tools from Rad Game Tools (http://www.radgametools.com/bnkdown.htm) to convert the .bik-files from Battlefield Vietnam\Mods\BfVietnam\Music to .wav-files and then use e.g. CDEX (http://www.cdex.n3.net/) to convert to mp3s.
