Phil Ochs Tribute in Rhode Island, Nov. 23, '13

On Saturday, Nov. 23, 2013, at 8 PM, Stone Soup Coffeehouse will host a Phil Ochs tribute. Performers include Greg Greenway, David Roth, Sharon Katz, Pat Wictor, and Joyce Katzberg. I have been to several of these in various venues with different performers and always enjoyed the wonderful songs.

Stone Soup is in the hall of St. Paul's Church at 50 Park Place, Pawtucket, RI. Pawtucket is tucked between South Attleboro, MA, and Providence, RI. It is just a few blocks from Rt. 95. In addition to street parking, there is a free lot at the end of the block. Directions, ticket info, and more are at http://www.stonesoupcoffeehouse.com/ . The video at the website is of another Phil Ochs Tribute with different performers at another venue, but it gives you an idea of what to expect.

Please come! I'd like to meet you!

These shows, many of them promoted by Sonny Ochs, are always enjoyable. If you've never had the pleasure, or if you have, try to attend . You may hear a couple of good songs for the first time, in addition to Phil's well known songs.

Sonny is indeed promoting this one, too.

I should have mentioned that Joyce Katzberg, whose video is linked in my previous post, used to post on Mudcat as Sing4Peace.

Another participant in Saturday night's program is Greg Greenway. Here's a video of Greg. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xy_ipUiDXm0

ChanteyLass: The Stone Soup website says that Magpie, who have been doing these Phil Ochs tributes forever, and have recorded some excellent covers of his songs will be on the bill. If so, that will make it an even more rewarding experience.

Thanks for the video of Joyce Katzberg. Her name, but not her work was familiar to me. I did book Kate Katzberg (her sister?) and Steve Snyder for a concert in the Eighties.

You probably did, Elmore. Kate is indeed Joyce's sister.

Kate is still performing in and around RI. Steve moved to Boston and other things, including working with WGBH radio, several years ago.

And here are Terry Leonino and Greg Artzner (aka Magpie) singing Phil Ochs' When I'm Gone. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z87YQgzeChM

Wish I could be there, but our (sort of) new home is a thousand miles away. Best of luck, Elmore
