Any fans of Phil Ochs here?
What a great musician. It might not be the same in the US but he is criminally under-appreciated over here. Billy Bragg is a massive advocate for his music, but still most people I talk to over here have never heard of him, which is a shame since he played an important role in music in the 60's.
Anyway I listened to a brilliant BBC documentary on Ochs narrated by Billy Bragg: http://www.nomoresongs.com/request.php?119 [mp3].
It's sad hearing about the latter stage of his career and life, I'd recommend giving it a listen.
Just thought I'd see if any of you guys like his music.
