Subject: Folksingers on Moratorium Day, Nov 15, 1969 From: GUEST,Boot Leg Date: 13 Mar 21 - 03:18 PM Last month, I accidentally found a recording of the Vietnam Moratorium Day rally on November 15, 1969. There are a lot of folksingers invited to the rally (by Peter Yarrow) to perform for the protesting crowd that was half a million strong. The event is best known for the crowd singing "Give Peace a Chance" with Pete Seeger yelling "Are you listening, Nixon?" I've uploaded the music performances from the event to YouTube and here is the playlist: Moratorium Day, November 15, 1969. There were a lot of brilliant speeches at the event, too, but I didn't have the time to upload them. 01. Peter Yarrow - Day Is Done 02. John Hartford - Orphan of World War Two 03. Tom Paxton - Jimmy Newman 04. Tom Paxton - Last Night I Had the Strangest Dream 05. Arlo Guthrie - I've Got to Know 06. Arlo Guthrie - This Land Is Your Land 07. [performance by an unrecognized singer] 08. Peter, Paul & Mary - The Times They Are A-Changin' 09. Pete Seeger & Rev. Kirkpatrick - Bring 'Em Home 10. Richie Havens - Freedom 11. Earl Scruggs - Foggy Mountain Breakdown 12. Charlie Daniels & Earl Scruggs - Maggie's Farm 13. Charlie Daniels & Earl Scruggs - Simple Song of Freedom 14. The Cleveland Quartet - String Quartet No. 4 in C minor, Op. 18, No. 4 15. Peter, Paul & Mary - If I Had a Hammer 16. Peter, Paul & Mary - If I Were Free 17.

Subject: RE: Review: Folksingers on Moratorium Day, Nov 1969 From: GUEST,Brian Grayson Date: 16 Mar 21 - 05:24 AM I have absolutely no idea who the 'unrecognised singer' is. The Song is introduced as 'Time is Tickin' By' and a Google search comes up irrelevant. Oh, la... |
Subject: RE: Review: Folksingers on Moratorium Day, Nov 1969 From: GUEST,Boot Leg Date: 20 Mar 21 - 01:09 AM For a limited time, the full 10-hour broadcast (with all speeches and songs) could be downloaded at: https://we.tl/t-h8pQ0RR72S. There is a limit to the web server, so the file could only be available for about a week or so. |
Subject: RE: Review: Folksingers on Moratorium Day, Nov 1969 From: GUEST Date: 23 Mar 21 - 03:43 AM Could also be "Time Keeps Tickin' By". Not really sure (too muffled a recording), but no result though |
Subject: RE: Review: Folksingers on Moratorium Day, Nov 1969 From: cnd Date: 23 Mar 21 - 10:28 AM I thought it was "keeps" as well but wasn't able to find a known song by that name that was the right one. |
