GUEST,lanfranc at the orifice	Tune Req: Phil Ochs (7)	RE: Tune Req: Phil Ochs	21 Mar 02
"Draft Dodger Rag" has long been one of my favourites, though I haven't sung it for a while until recently. I modified the last verse last tim I sang it. Instead of: "I hate Chou en Lai, and I hope he dies" I sang: "I hate Bin Laden, he's bad as Satan" Which updates it a bit - I'm sure Phil wouldn't mind. I wish he were still with us, what would he have to say about the current situation? The thing about Phil that differentiates a lot of his material is his background as a journalist, I feel that it gave him an edge that no-one before or since has had. My favourites? "A small circle of friends", "Pleasures of the Harbour", "Changes", "When I'm Gone", "There, but for fortune", "The Highwayman" - and so many more. Thus primed, I might do a couple on PalTalk tonight! Alan
