I certainly like Si Kahn, whose music I discovered after someone here on the 'Cat recommended him. Really deep social conscience and some wonderful lyrics.

Of course, in my day, we were motivated to write and think politically because the boys I went to high school with were being sent off to a foreign war and were dying all around us for reasons we couldn't discern or doubted heartily. Nothing like that to radicalize a generation.

Thanks, Canoe. Welcome to the 'Cat. Haven't seen you in these parts before, but then, I've been a bit scarce lately.
