Subject: RE: Remembering Phil Ochs From: GUEST,Doc John Date: 09 Apr 11 - 06:34 AM Phil Ochs was the best topical singer/songwriter of his generation bar none. As Rog says many of his songs are as relevant today as when he wrote them and those that aren't still stand out as excellent pieces work in the folk tradition. This cannot be said of many of his contemporaries. A truely tragic end to the life of a great folk poet; sadly missed. |
