Bill Hahn//\\ Iraq War Protest songs (60* d) RE: Iraq War Protest songs 26 Mar 08


Recently in an interview on WNYC in NYC the interviewee (name eludes me now) made the comment that there are really not any good protest writers today---save for, perhaps, Steve Earle. Seems to me there are a lot of damned good ones out there ---the above proves it and also shows that the old masters (Paxton) are also still at it. In addition, sadly, some pieces by deceased writers (Ochs) --and even older ones from living writers are still valid.

I guess the interviewee does not listen to the stations on the left side of the dial of most radios (and in the center in NYC).

My addition to this list is a piece I have ----among others listed above--- played on my radio program (Traditions)--ROY ZIMMERMAN--THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT.
