Gawd, I love this man.

A tormented genius, stolen by depression

I have loved this guy's music since I first heard it in 1969, at age 15. I learned to play the guitar, and used to do this song; it's very hard to play. I never thought I would get to see him perform the song. His picking and strumming are unbelievable. He so easily hits the notes perfectly. Thank you to whoever uploaded this. PS: If you "found" Phil Ochs on this video, listen to him sing "That Was the President", and "Here's to the State of Mississippi". RIP Mr. Ochs

This was an interesting time, Phil Ochs, Dylan (before he went electric) Dave Van Ronk, Richard and Mimi Farina, Eric Anderson, Pete Seeger ,Joan Baez, some really great meaningful music.

Both of my kids learned this poem in the 5th grade as part of their cyber school curriculum, but somehow it never even occurred me to play them this song! How could I have forgotten? It is so much better when set by music. RIP, Phil. You will always be one of my favorite musicians.

Wait, where are the flashy lights, thumping baseline, seductive dancers, screaming audience.... oh that's right you don't need any of that when you've got raw talent.Phil you are a hero to me.

I've listened to this song about a million times and I can never remember all the words. What a memory he has!!

Ralph Alexander Minton

In the Mid-60's when we were travelling through the night very late at night, we would sing this song, over and over, and, eventually, get to wherever we were bound for, or, at least, see the sunrise.

I remember reading almost 20 years ago that Sean Penn bought the rights to doPhil Ochs life story. What's he waiting for?
