Music on a nuclear theme -Reply



Unless I'm mistaken, the record Atomic Cafe was released  by Rounder
Records just before the movie of that name.  Some, but not all, of the
music was used in the film.  The record is described as a compilation of
"Radioactive Rock'n roll, Blues, Country and Gospel". The compiler was
Charles Wolfe who wrote an article: "Nuclear Country: The Atomic Bomb
in Country Music" in the Journal of Country Music VI (4) Jan. 1978: 4-22.

The tracks are: 

Atom and Evil
When the Bomb Fell
Win the War Blues
Atomic Power
Jesus Hits Like an Atom Bomb
When They Drop the Atomic Bomb
Atomic Sermon
Old Man Atom
Uranium
50 Megatons
Atomic Bomb Baby
Satellite Baby
Sputniks and Mutnicks
Atomic Cocktail
Atomic Love
Atomic telephone
Reds Dream
